Textured Abstract Bluebonnet Painting by Texas Artist Niki Gulley

      

 
“Colorful Crescendo II” ©2025 Niki Gulley

30″ x 30″ textured mixed media painting on 1.5″ gallery wrap canvas with the scene continuing around the edges

I wanted this painting to be about the joy I feel in springtime when Texas wildflowers are bursting forth, creating their symphony of colors. Magical light flows around them casting its warm glow and hope for the upcoming day. As the sun illuminates the horizon, bluebonnets and a kaleidoscope of blooms sparkle and dance across the canvas. I hope “Colorful Crescendo II” fills your heart with the power of nature to lift your spirits, energize your soul and bathe you in peace.

New “Garden Visit” from Sevilla, Spain by Impressionist Niki Gulley

 

 

“Garden Visit” – Sevilla ©2024 Niki Gulley
9″ x 12” textured acrylic painting on canvas panel
 

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. Then, to my delight a beautiful peacock strolled into my scene and I had to capture him!

Tuscany “Walled Garden” Painting by Palette Knife Artist Niki Gulley

   

 
“Walled Garden,” Tuscany ©2025 Niki Gulley
SOLD • 12″ x 16″ textured acrylic painting on canvas panel
 
Just sold! When we checked into our B and B in Tuscany this year, we were greeted by beautiful plantings everywhere. I fell in love with these gorgeous geraniums lining their Italian stairway and the soft light illuminating this courtyard. With my palette knife, I set out to capture all of the different textures from the Roman  stone wall to the cobble path to the brick accents. Filled with joy and color, I hope you are transported to this serene escape.
