Oh the beauty of driving through Texas in April! Waves of prolific bluebonnets, Indian paintbrush and assorted wildflowers lead you to a vanishing point just over the horizon.

New “Sapphire Symphony” Large Texas Bluebonnet Painting by Niki Gulley

April 7, 2025

48″ x 60″ textured acrylic painting on wrap around canvas

My labor of love this past month! With the canvas as wide as I am tall, and so many ups and downs my step ladder painting it, this one was quite the workout. But, it was important for me to completely immerse you in the energy found amongst nature. This painting is best seen in person so that you can step into this life-size canvas and feel our Texas’ landscape’s beauty yourself.

I made sure to not over blend my thick strokes so that you could see the marks and feel the vivacity found in nature. Repeating patterns and waves of color create a harmony within the painting. Rendering the bluebonnets and wildflowers along with their surroundings loosely plays with taking a traditional subject matter and putting a new twist on it. Voluminous and dramatic clouds surround your journey into this uplifting symphonic expression of peace and hope.

Nature’s Masterpieces amongst the Texas Wildflowers

February 12, 2025

Nature creates the most beautiful masterpieces.

As an artist, I’m simply here to translate that beauty onto canvas, capturing not just the colors, but the feeling of standing in a field of wildflowers swaying in the breeze.

There’s something magical about how each flower adds its own unique voice to nature’s symphony. Just like in life, it’s our differences that create the most beautiful harmonies. ?

What speaks to your soul in nature?
