“Pretty in Pink II” ©2023 Niki Gulley
8″ x 10” textured acrylic painting on canvas panel
Can you really get too much pink??? After painting my first blush Victorian home in Waxahachie the previous week, I just had to capture another one today. This 1800’s beauty was decorated in pink, pink, and more pink! So whimsical and fun, I just had to feature these kitschy flamingos and all of the rosy glory surrounding them.
For a brand new challenge this spring, I registered for Paint Historic Waxahachie, a plein air painting competition hosted in the town of Waxahachie about an hour south of Dallas. Basically, over the course of a few weeks, our assignment was to complete paintings on location anywhere in the city limits. Filled with beautiful historic homes, I was attracted to the detailed craftsmanship and architecture. Each homeowner had taken great care in decorating their porches and yards to create a warm welcome, and I wanted to capture that beauty and pride in my paintings.
