Four Seasons Quadriptych Painting by Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

    

 

“Evolving Seasons – Summer” ©2024 by Niki Gulley
48″ x 36″ textured oil painting
 

I wanted to create a large horizontal quadriptych, or four piece painting, that would flow from one season to the next to show the beauty of the forest throughout the year. Working on such a large scale invites you to step right into the scene and take a walk through the woods, enjoying all of the peace and joy that nature has to offer.

Here you can see all four paintings in a row, flowing from spring to summer and fall to winter. Rather than show the same exact scene at four different times of year, I decided I would rather show one long forest evolving from one season to the next to create a better harmony across the canvases. From the ground gently undulating underneath, to the pine trees flowing from canvas to canvas, to the rhythm created from aspens and oaks repeating, to the foliage and pops of color emerging and drifting into the distance, all elements are designed to add to the flowing symphony in “Evolving Seasons.

We love Europe and the colorful architecture there. This patio garden was so inviting and the cobble steps welcomed you there. Add the pop of complimentary color with their blue gate and doorway against the yellow stucco and I just had to paint this cheerful kaleidoscope of colors.

Framed as shown in silver wood with off white mat (minor flaws in the silver frame)
 
 
I love the way the petals fell on these bearded irises, showing various shades of purple exposing their golden plumes.  Mist from the sprinklers causes the background colors to swirl and dance, creating a beautiful harmony in this scene.

Painted just outside of Santa Fe, the fall colors were gorgeous this year. The contrast of complimentary oranges and blues and yellows and purples created an energetic symphony for the eyes! Bright sunshine warmed up the day and caused the light to glow and dance. I hope you can enjoy the escape of a leisurely drive through the beautiful autumn scenery of New Mexico.

To purchase “Scenic Byway II,” please visit the Good Art Company Gallery in Fredericksburg, TX at goodartcompany.com/niki-gulley .

“Daffodils” Contemporary Impressionistic Floral Pastel by Niki Gulley

    

“Daffodils” ©Niki Gulley
18″ x 24” pastel on paper
 
Daffodils are symbols of spring and in many cultures their blooms kick off the start of many festivals. For me they just seem to make me happy. The petals appear to dance in the breeze with the colors inviting you in for a closer look. Their beauty is fleeting though, so I had to capture them quick before they faded out until next year.

32? x 26? framed size • pastel on board 
Framed as shown in silver metal frame with off white mat • (will be shipped in frame for protection, but will probably need to be reframed)
 
What a treat to find this little guy taking a break on these elephant ears at the Dallas Arboretum.  The black and orange of this monarch butterfly caught my eye but the curves of the ears led me right to him. Vibrant yellows with a rainbow of colors fill the background.

“Spring Forward III” Bluebonnet Painting by Texas Artist Niki Gulley

  

 

 

“Spring Forward III” ©2023 Niki Gulley
20″ x 24″ textured mixed media painting on canvas
 

I painted “Spring Forward” while visiting the Texas Hill Country. The explosion of color along roadsides was incredible! This morning the sun kept peeking in and out of the clouds, creating a soft glow to everything it touched. I wanted to capture that magical light illuminating your journey lined by bluebonnets and Indian paintbrush. I hope you, too, can feel the excitement of springtime with the wildflowers abloom!
