Contemporary Abstract Landscape by Kay Wyne

Abstract Landscape Painting

Contemporary Oil Painting

24" x 12" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas

Corals, violets, and greens bounce off of each other in this painting.

I used a flat brush for most of the painting, giving the shapes crisp edges.

I really went on a limb and used some cad green.  No pun intended.

This painting is hanging at the studio right now.

"It's Snowing" experimental landscape painting by Texas artist Linda Bein

"It's Snowing!"

Experimental

This painting was done as a demo during an adult art class.  I have several done in a similar process.  You take an old painting you don't like (never waste a piece of 140#  arches watercolor paper) or on a new sheet.  I used an old painting and collaged  tissue paper on it using gesso to mute the background colors.  After it is dry you look at the painting, turn it around a few times and start painting, reacting to the colors and texture that you have created.  You go with the flow and find inspiration from the painting in process or you can force it to a specific subject matter.  I usually feel a landscape emerging.  I do not normally paint out in the heat or the cold, but I love to be outside; maybe that is why I enjoy painting landscapes.  The most relaxing part of my day is outside in the morning and night with the dog feeding the horses, and of course scooping all that manure!!

Looking for You by Kay Wyne

Looking For You

18" x 36" x 2 1/4"

Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

This painting is drying....I used a cooler background color than I normally do on this canvas. The canvas is rather thick, and gives the canvas a chunky, heavy look. I liked the size....more of a small to medium size canvas. I wanted to create some depth, with the viewer looking through the canvas, eye wandering around. The colors on the canvas change from deep violets and purple and greys to roses, oranges and ochers.

Here is a close-up shot of the canvas, as you can see the colors better. A wide, flat brush and palette knife was used to create this painting. Please contact Kay if you are interested in this piece, or any of her other paintings. Thanks, Kay at 214-532-0325 or kay@kwyne.com.

"Autumn Splendor" textured aspen tree painting by Niki Gulley

“Autumn Splendor” ©2011 Niki Gulley

36” x 48” textured oil on wrap around canvas

Shimmering colors of autumn: Aspen trees quiver, their light graceful leaves tremble and quake, silver and gold, silver and gold with each light breeze.

There is the quiet energy of change coming and vibrant color charges the woods. Crisp fall mountain air, clean bright skies overhead, a band of slender straight trucks cut bright strokes of white against a dazzling tumble of green, crimson and gold.
