Palette Knife Artist Niki Gulley Paints Cathartic Seascapes

September 18, 2023

12″ x 12″ textured acrylic painting on canvas panel

I wanted this painting to be about the power of the ocean to lift your spirits. Painting this piece on location, I was hoping you could feel the ocean tides lapping on the shore and hear the rhythmic, soothing sounds of the waves cresting and falling like I was experiencing while painting it. Whenever I visit the beach I always feel rejuvenated, and I hope I’ve translated that onto the canvas for you to experience it, too.

Contemporary Seascape Painting by Impressionist Niki Gulley

September 15, 2023

12″ x 12″ textured acrylic painting on canvas panel

I am so longing for a refreshing dip in the ocean! How about you?

I wanted this painting to be about the power of the ocean to lift your spirits. Painting this piece on location, I strove to capture the sparkle the sun cast across the turquoise waters as it slowly rose above the horizon. Creating bobbing diamonds of sparkling light across the surface was truly mesmerizing to watch.

Contemporary Poppy Field Painting by Palette Knife Artist Niki Gulley

36″ x 36″ textured oil painting on wrap around canvas

I absolutely love it when I come across a whole field of wildflowers – there is something about the transformation of a single dainty flower into a dense explosion of color that inspires awe and delights your senses. I liked how these rows of poppies and rolling grasses created a gentle harmony, inviting you to wander into the distance, getting lost in the moment. Full of color and hope, may my “Symphony in Springtime” transport you to a happy serene place.

New Uplifting Sunflower Painting by Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

September 6, 2023

Just Sold! I kept procrastinating because of our 106 degree heat, but everyday when I’d look out the window, the sunflowers in my garden would be calling me! So, I finally gave in this week, set the alarm for 6 am (which Scott dearly loved) and started painting at first light and the coolest part of the day at 88 degrees. It was worth it! The golden beauties are just so cheerful and colorful, that I almost got so lost in the process of capturing them that I forgot about the sweltering discomfort – almost!

I hope they can bring some joy and sunshine to your day, too!
