Harvesting Sunshine oil painting by Niki Gulley



"Harvesting Sunshine" ©2010 Niki Gulley
30" x 48" oil on canvas

Here is one of the new large pieces I've been working on this winter. I wanted to paint something bright and happy that would always cause you to smile when you looked at it. In person the painting really leaps off the canvas both because of its bright colors and also the extremely thick oil paint I used. Working with the paint in more a sculptural-like manner, I was able to develop a sense of three-dimensionality and movement.

Please stop by the Frisco Art Festival this weekend to see and feel this piece in person. I'd love to see you there! Visit NikiGulley.com for more details.
