3-D Petal Poetry Paintings by Palette Knife Artist Niki Gulley

February 14, 2025

Get lost in the ebb and flow of luscious chunky paint as it waltzes around these new creations. I am working with paint so thick, it is literally leaping off the canvas and bringing nature’s beauty to life. At least half an inch thick in some places, these buttery, voluptuous florals are what paint dreams are made of!

New Sculptural Rose Paintings in Time for Valentine’s Day by Niki Gulley

February 13, 2025

There is just something inherently beautiful about a rose. The bards write poems about it and musicians compose ballads about them. They signify love and happiness and their aroma always seem to make us smile. Think of how much better the world is when roses are a part of your day.

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?

“Nature’s Brushstrokes” diptych painting by Niki Gulley

February 11, 2025

SOLD • 24″ x 48″ diptych textured mixed painting on canvas

Just sold through The Good Art Company Gallery! I love it when we are driving through the countryside and we come across a gorgeous field of wildflowers. The sudden burst of color thrills your senses! I wanted to capture the rhythm, color, and density of this brilliant carpet of red. Making sure not to over blend my thick strokes so that you could see the marks and feel the energy found in nature. Repeating patterns and waves of color create a harmony within the painting, while rendering the blooms and their surroundings abstractly plays with taking a traditional subject matter and showing it in a contemporary way.

It’s not just about what you see, but what you can feel

February 7, 2025

Zoom in… there’s a story in every layer! ? Using my palette knife technique allows me to create rich textures that bring depth and movement to each piece.

It’s not just about what you see, but what you can feel – that’s why I love how the raised paint catches light and creates shadows, making the artwork come alive from every angle. ?

Interesting fact: These textured strokes aren’t just visual – they allow my blind father to ‘see’ my paintings through touch, adding another dimension to how art can be experienced. ?
