Impressionist Water Lily Pastel by Texas Artist Niki Gulley

February 15, 2024

 

“Liquid Mirror” 
pastel on paper 32” x 24” framed size
Framed as shown in burl wood with teal mats (this frame has a few flaws in the corners)
 
Sunlight reflects across deep blue water,
ribbons of gold glitter the pond’s surface; 
a water lily lifts its face toward the sun and gently dances across the water. 
Golden sunlight filters through the brambles and reeds, 
a touch of cardinal red peeks through colorful foliage 
while azure skies reflect in the water.

Painting in Montepulciano with Niki Gulley

September 28, 2012
12×9 textured oil painting by Niki Gulley

Day 2, Montepulciano – Tuscany Art Trek
With a little more time before our afternoon winery tour, we decided to work on another painting. I chose this view of the tile rooftops below spreading out in front of the valley. I loved the puzzle piece feel of the buildings, zigzagging in all different directions, clinging to the steep drop below with the fields of crops also adding their criss crossing patterns to the jigsaw puzzle.
If you’d like to join us for next year’s Art Trek to Venice in February, Greece in May, Tuscany in September or Cinque Terre / Lake Como in September, please visit NikiGulley.com/Artreks for more information.
