Serenity Now! Escape with Artist Niki Gulley to the Outer Banks

October 25, 2023

After nine days of grey, cold and sometimes rainy weather, I really needed to warm up and soak up some Vitamin D sunshine. So, we took a detour from fall foliage and headed to North Carolina’s Outer Banks. We found an amazing campsite right on the water, and this was our view out our window for the next 2 days! While a little windy our first night, the next morning I woke to beautiful, calm blue waters and I just had to paint that serene view. Those 2 hammocks were calling my name to just relax. I hope you can escape with me into this peaceful, cathartic seascape.

New “Cadillac Mountain” Painting from Acadia National Park by Niki Gulley

September 29, 2023

Today we arrived in Acadia National Park in Maine and since no RV’s are allowed at the summit, we rode our scooter to the top of Cadillac Mountain. It was gorgeous! But there is not much room for art supplies in our little scooter’s storage compartment, so I packed my 5″ x 7″ paint gear and sat down on a fairly comfy boulder to paint this scenic view. With the first hints of fall in the ground cover adding a fun pop of red, I set out to capture this beautiful view of the rocks, pine trees, jagged hills and ocean.

What a fabulous day! Sun is shining. Waves are crashing. Seagulls are screaming. And, I’ve got my toes in the sand. We’ve landed on Old Orchard Beach in Maine just soaking up the beautiful scenery. Hope you can feel the beautiful ocean breezes and hear the cathartic sound of the tide, too!
