Texas wildflower painting

“Blue Rhapsody II” Abstract Bluebonnet Painting by Niki Gulley

January 18, 2023

36″ x 36″ textured mixed media painting on wrap around canvas

I wanted to show Texas’ spring landscape in a completely different way. With an aura of mystery and the promise of what tomorrow holds, late day light sparkles over the horizon casting its warm glow kissing everything it touches with glimmers of hope. The vague suggestion of bluebonnets and colorful wildflowers peek through the dancing golden tangle, leaving the landscape loose and free so that your imagination can tell its story. May you relish the joy in the beauty of nature, bathing in the moment and looking forward to what tomorrow will bring.
