New “Song of the Woods” Aspen Tree Painting by Niki Gulley

June 24, 2015
“Song of the Woods”  ©2015 Niki Gulley
30″ x 40″ textured oil painting on wrap around canvas

Shimmering colors of autumn: Aspen and Oak trees quiver, their light graceful leaves tremble and quake, silver and gold, scarlet and tangerine, with each light breeze. There is the quiet energy of change coming and vibrant color charges the woods. Crisp fall mountain air, a band of slender trunks cut bright strokes of white against a dazzling kaleidoscope of colors. Staccato strokes and shimmering hues add to the feeling of change in the air and suggest the breeze whistling through the foliage.

“Song of the Woods” along with a few of my textured oils will be on display at Davis and Company Fine Art Gallery north of Houston, TX. If you’d like more details, please follow the link below.

SOLD • 36″ x 60″ textured oil painting on wrap around canvas

JUST SOLD! This Colorado aspen forest was so dense and beautiful. I loved the pops of vibrant fall colors peeking through the tangled web of white textured trunks. Ruby reds grab your attention while staccato strokes of rich jewel tones cause the foliage to shimmer and long sweeping passages of chartreuse lead your eye across the canvas. I hope you can feel the energy found in nature and its power to invigorate your spirit.

New Aspen Tree Palette Knife Painting by Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

“Fall Fusion” ©2015 Niki Gulley
SOLD • 24″ x 48″ textured oil painting on wrap around canvas

Just Sold! I wanted this painting to be about the power and energy in nature to invigorate your spirit, so I chose to use warm vivid colors and thick staccato strokes to add to that feeling. I placed the fall foliage in diagonal sweeping shapes to create a sense of movement, so that you can feel the wind gently rustling the leaves and causing them to dance on a beautiful fall day.

“Autumn Symphony” pastel by Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

August 29, 2014

“Autumn Symphony” ©2014 Niki Gulley
Pastel • 24” x 36”

This is a quiet, protected creek by our house that I like escaping to when I need a break from city life. On this perfect autumn day, there was the gentlest of breezes rustling the leaves, the vibrant fall foliage was at its peak and the only sounds to be heard came from the trickling of the nearby waterfall and the birds’ sweet melodies.
