“Admiring the View” Large Panorama Landscape Painting by Niki Gulley

        

“Admiring the View” ©2023 Niki Gulley
20″ x 60″ textured mixed media painting on 1.5″ wrap around canvas with the painting continuing around the edges
 
Conjured up from a combination of my imagination and memories of inspiring drives through vibrant wildflower fields, I wanted to create a fantasy landscape filled with the joy and energy of springtime. Colorful foliage embraces your journey, while dancing blooms blanket the ground under your feet. Mysterious light beckons you onward to discover what is beyond the next bend. Stop for a moment and take in the view or continue your venture and wander into the unknown.

Abstract Birch and Aspen Tree Paintings by Niki Gulley

 

     

 
“Floating Expressions II” ©2022 Niki Gulley
SOLD • 24″ x 24″ textured mixed media painting on wrap around canvas, framed in a silver floater frame

 

Just Sold! In this painting series, I wanted the focus to be on texture. Usually I paint with a lot of color, but I opted to use a limited palette on these pieces to really concentrate on the peeling bark of the aspen trees. Bordering on the edge of abstraction and the cusp of realism, Floating Expressions is loaded with layers and layers of paint, built up with thin glazes and then palette knife to create extreme dimension. Choosing to come in extremely close on the subject, I played around with various strokes and paint thicknesses to add depth and energy. At the end, I had to throw in a few of my signature strokes of color – a splash of gold, some touches of purple, and just a dab of fire-engine red for added excitement and unexpected color twists.
