August 21, 2020

7″ x 5” textured oil painting on panel
 

This was a great opportunity to play with shapes and color. The geraniums were in full bloom with their red flowers creating a stark contrast with the terra cotta pots and white background. You also get the elevation change as they climb the stairs with the railing pulling you upward.

Our hotel in Sevilla, Spain had a rooftop terrace that overlooked the city and I couldn’t resist spending some time there to paint. I also had a waiter that would bring me snacks and drinks. That is the way to paint!

9″ x 12” textured oil painting on panel
 

On the last day of our Spain Art Trek, we visited Plaza de España, a Moorish paradisiacal gathering place with a half mile of tiled fountains, pavilions, ponds and lush plantings. Some of my painters captured the river and bridges flowing through the center of the park, while I focused more on the unusual architectural elements.

I found this magical spot while wandering the gardens at the Alcazar in Sevilla, Spain. It was a beautiful scene and a great way to beat the heat and enjoy some time in the shade listening to the water fountain flow.

I can’t go to Santa Fe without making a stop at Ranchos de Taos. This church has almost become synonymous with the area. With its strong base and beautiful smooth lines it has created a certain grace and elegance that sets it apart from the rest.

New Highly Textured Red Barn Painting by Niki Gulley

August 13, 2020
 
“Iconic America” ©2020 Niki Gulley
9″ x 12″ textured oil painting 
 
Nothing says rural America like a red barn. Just seeing one takes us to farm country with the smell of fresh cut hay, the sound of tractors and horses running in the fields.  Creating this gave me a sense of nostalgia and a connection to all of our roots.!

Vermont Fall Foliage Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Stowe, VT
 
Every day we were in New England, we’d drive through this gorgeous fall canopy. So one morning when the light was sparkling through the leaves, I decided to set my easel up along the road to capture its beauty and mystery. I loved the curve of the road beckoning you into the autumn glow. The dappled light also created a warmth leading your eye through the painting, onto the journey ahead.

“Rural View IV” Palette Knife Painting from Iceland by Niki Gulley

August 3, 2020
“Rural View IV” ©2019 Niki Gulley
5″ x 7” textured oil painting

Continuing our journey along the west coast of Iceland, I was taken by their simplistic architecture, often topped with bright red roofs to add a pop of color to the natural landscape. In the next several paintings, you’ll see I chose a different house or barn each day and set out to capture its shape, the colors and light hitting the structure, and the picturesque, idyllic, quiet scenery surrounding the building in all directions. Here is my next one, another small 5” x 7” study where I came in close so you get a sense of scale for the size of the barn and the mountain behind it. My main focus for this painting was contrasting simplistic objects, repeating shapes and direction, texture and movement in my strokes.

Day 5:  Ireland ART TREK
Killarney
Plein Air Painting and Photography Workshop with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
 

On the next morning of our Ireland Art Trek, we left for Killarney, making a pit stop in the adorable thatch-roofed town of Adare. After exploring and grabbing lunch, we drove onto our lodging for the next few nights, a 16th century castle, fit for a king! Dinner was also delicious that evening in the castle’s dining room.
