New “Happy Trails” Bluebonnet Trail by Texas Artist Niki Gulley

February 4, 2022

24″ x 36″ textured mixed media painting

Inspired by a trip to the hill country, I wanted you feel the warmth and beauty on this perfect spring day while out for a leisurely stroll among the bluebonnets. Dramatic clouds drift by and the landscape is filled with vibrant color to lift your spirits. Painted with thick paint and palette knives to achieve extreme texture, the resulting image comes to life and is loaded with color, movement and energy. I hope you enjoy this happy trail!

New “Kinetic Blues” Highly Textured Bluebonnet Painting by Niki Gulley

September 6, 2021

36″ x 36″ textured mixed media on 1.5″ gallery wrap canvas with the painting continuing around the edges

With such depressing news these days, I felt compelled to paint something that would make us feel much better. And, it worked on me, so I hope it does the same for you. I felt so much happier after painting this larger than life bluebonnet and Indian Paintbrush scene. Working with palette knife and a lot of texture, reveling in the process of flinging and pouring paint to create a joyful, kinetic kaleidoscope, and playing with a cheerful palette of reds, yellows and blues, I feel like this one really lifts one’s spirits and has a touch of whimsy to it.

Large Sunflower Painting by Palette Knife Artist Niki Gulley

April 30, 2021

30″ x 48″ Textured Mixed Media on Canvas

In this new series, I wanted to create pieces that are full of joy, energy, texture and light. Working on oversized canvases and painting the blossoms larger than life add to that feeling of hope and exuberance. Choosing to leave the background airy and working with thick layers of white on white paint, ribbons of brightly colored blooms dance across the canvas with spontaneity and freedom. Subconsciously, I feel like these light-filled visions came to me in response to so much bad news and the COVID lockdown. Searching for a way to create more space, room to roam and the freedom to live life to its fullest, I hope these paintings bring the beauty of nature inside and fill your spirit with light and cheer.
