Abstract by Kay Wyne





Horizontal
48" x 60" 

Vertical
60" x 48"

I painted this abstract on a 48" x 60" Gallery Wrap Canvas.  It can hang vertically or horizontally.  I painted it horizontally until the last day, and at the point I turned it on it's side to reach some canvas that needed some detail and brushstrokes headed in another direction.  Turning the canvas on all four sides gives the viewer some options on hanging...

This painting started out as a landscape with a horizon line and colorful land bars.  Once my wide lines and shape started to take place, it began to look and feel like a stream of water with fish swimming upstream.  I concentrated on my color palette from the get-go, wanting pleasant and beautiful colors.  I mixed everything...nothing is straight out of a tube.  This painting is drying at the studio.  It isn't titled right now....although "Upstream" might be a good choice.  The sides of the canvas are painted with a dark vulcan grey, and framing is not necessary.  Contact Kay Wyne for more information on this contemporary abstract painting.  Kay

Untitled Wildflower Landscape Painting by Kay Wyne


Untitled
8" x 16" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting

I am currently working on a new series of landscape paintings...it is a good time to explore and experiment with my paints.  Now I am in the studio for a long stretch of time, all day long with few interruptions.  I have 16 paintings started, all at different stages.  Most are landscapes---and one cow.  The cow is a challenge.  

This small wildflower landscape is completed.  The colors in the wildflowers are bouncing off of each other.  I must say that I did borrowed some paint from Sharon in the studio since she had piles of paint mixed up.  Huge piles of beautiful paint...so much paint that the dogs got into the paint today!  Thanks for looking at this blog and the art posted here.  Contact Kay for more information.  This painting does not require a frame since it is on a thick gallery wrap canvas.  KMW

On my easel by Kay Wyne


On My Easel....
Yesterday was a great day in the studio.  I started a new painting and here is what I have after scrubbing shapes and color in.  I used a #12 Filbert all the way.  This painting is in an abstract stage, and it may stay that way....not sure.  Starting a new painting is always so much.  I can't wait to get in front of my easel today and work on this painting.  I want to the clouds to be dramatic and bold.  More on this painting tomorrow...Kay

Just Because by Kay Wyne

Just Because
36" x 36" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
My inspiration for the contemporary palette knife painting
 was a beautiful floral arrangement that 
son in-law Wes gave daughter Lindsay.
This canvas has lots of texture because the paint was 
applied with a palette knife.  If you are interested in
this painting, contact Pam Massar or Kay Wyne.
Thanks for viewing!

Funky Chicks by Kay Wyne




Funky Chicks
29" x 20" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Oil Painting
I just signed and completed this painting yesterday at the studio.  
I may have one or two more strokes to add, but it is drying for now.
The mood hit me that I needed to paint a rooster or chicken and explore with 
color, shapes and lines.  I am getting back into the swing of painting after being away from the easel for a month.  Thanks for viewing....Kay

Season Of Color by Kay Wyne


Season Of Color
18" x 18" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas
I was looking at this painting yesterday at the studio, liking the color palette used.  I had mixed some beige/salmon colors and some greens that I normally don't use in my paintings.  The blues were mixed from ultra marine, cobalt and radiant turquoise. I was looking at the shapes and saw something new to my eye.  When I painted it, I was going for a contemporary landscape, with trees, river and sky.  Now I see a cityscape...with tall buildings and a road.  I think that is one of the neat things about abstracts-you can see what you want to see in them if you let your imagination go with it. Thanks for viewing this blog and the art posted.  Have a good day!  Kay at kay@kwyne.com

Yarn by Kay Wyne


Yarn
Contemporary Oil Painting
This is a 18" x 18" oil painting on a gallery wrap canvas. Very colorful. Inspired by yarn. Lots of stacked up yarn in a bin. It is a kaleidoscope of variegated colors. I thought I would rename this painting, but Yarn it is. I was thinking that a series of yarn paintings might be interesting...take  a trip through a yarn shop and see all of the beautiful colors, textures and thicknesses of the yarns.  Maybe I will put that on my to-do list.  I am getting ready to start a new series for 2013, but I have not decided exactly what my guidelines for that series will be.  Please contact me if you are interested in purchasing. No frame needed...it is ready to hang!  Kay at kay@kwyne.com

Horizon Series: Abstract Without A Name by Kay Wyne


Horizon Series:  Abstract Without A Name
36" x 36" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas
I still haven't decided on a name for the contemporary abstract painting.  Maybe someone out there can help me out.  When you stand back and look at the shapes, it looks like a landscape painting with refection in the water.  Or maybe you see something else.  Anyway, this piece is available and would love to have a new home.  Contact Kay at kay@kwyne.com for more information on this painting.  Thanks, and have a great day.  Kay

Cock A Doodle Do by Kay Wyne



Cock A Doodle Do
30" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Roosters and Chickens

Steel gray, icey blue, torrit gray and ultramarine blue with touches of cad red and cad yellow fill this canvas.  These roosters and chickens are colorful and fun, with some loose brush strokes to let the viewer use some imagination.  They are running off the canvas, looking at each other and looking very important.  I did not want to over-paint this one, as I had fun just cutting loose on the colors and then got out the oil sticks for some line drawings.  These fine feathered friends are looking for a new home...contact me if you are interested in this contemporary oil painting.  Thanks for viewing this blog.  Kay at kay@kwyne.com
