Textured Abstract Bluebonnet Painting by Texas Artist Niki Gulley

      

 
“Colorful Crescendo II” ©2025 Niki Gulley

30″ x 30″ textured mixed media painting on 1.5″ gallery wrap canvas with the scene continuing around the edges

I wanted this painting to be about the joy I feel in springtime when Texas wildflowers are bursting forth, creating their symphony of colors. Magical light flows around them casting its warm glow and hope for the upcoming day. As the sun illuminates the horizon, bluebonnets and a kaleidoscope of blooms sparkle and dance across the canvas. I hope “Colorful Crescendo II” fills your heart with the power of nature to lift your spirits, energize your soul and bathe you in peace.

Painting in Tuscany with Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

 

“Amber Waves,” Tuscany ©Niki Gulley
20″ x 10″ textured acrylic painting on canvas panel
 
Day 3, afternoon location – ART TREKS: TUSCANY
 with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams

 

After we finished a delicious antipasto lunch of prosciuttos, local pecorino, and fresh fruits and vegetables, we headed into the hills for our painting location. Golden wheatfields undulating in the breeze lined the foreground and set the stage for this quintessential tuscan farmhouses. Peaks and valleys rise and fall in the background, signaling you are in Tuscany. Between the quiet surroundings, perfect weather, and the gorgeous scenery this proved to be a very inspiring afternoon!

Visiting Vineyards and Wine Tasting with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams

Tuscany Foodie Trek – Led by Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Day 4: Wine Tasting in Montalcino
 
Today we visited the nearby hill town of Montalcino and sampled their famous Brunello wines. The vino was beyond delicious and the spread of homemade bruschetta and local meats and cheeses were paired perfectly. Stopping off along the way, we toured an ancient Monastery that feels so spiritual in its divine simplicity that everyone found it a highlight of the trip.
 
In the above painting you can see this beautiful abbey in the distance, surrounded by grapevines, olive groves and cypress trees. Signs of fall appear as the colorful vines turn vibrant shades of crimson. Setting up my easel across from this vineyard, I began recreating the soft light that would break through the clouds and illuminate various hilltops and plantings. I arranged the vines to lead your eye back to the church and the beautiful countryside. I hope you can taste the delicious wine and escape to Tuscany with us!
