Texas Artist Niki Gulley Painting Spring Wildflowers

 

 
“Spring’s Brushstrokes” ©2023 Niki Gulley
12″ x 12” textured acrylic painting on canvas panel

This spring I was invited to paint on this beautiful ranch south of Dallas. I loved the contrast of the red barn doors against the sea of blue wildflowers and the azure skies above. Full of texture and character, I wanted to capture its essence on that beautiful spring day. While the air was still crisp, the sun was warming the ground, causing the foreground to glow and welcoming in spring.
