Rattled by Kay Wyne


Rattled
24" x 24" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Abstract Palette Knife Painting
This painting went through many changes, starting out as a landscape, turning into some dark abstract aspens, then a tornado hit it. (Everyone saw the tornado in the painting!) It was a wiper for sure. I rescued the canvas, but painted it on a day when I was really rattled. I was interrupted at the studio numerous times...therefore, the title, "Rattled". This painting is a detour from my normal palette, being on the dark and muted side of the color spectrum. Thanks for looking at the art on this blog....contact Kay for more information on this painting or the art posted on this blog.

Red Dragonfly by Kay Wyne

Red Dragonfly
32" x 32" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
I painted all day yesterday---so much that my feet and knees hurt this morning.  I hope to finish and post the painting I am currently working on for tomorrow.  This painting was inspired after seeing a photograph that fellow artist and friend, Mark Malone took.  He had blown the image up and it was so neat!  I used one size palette knife on this canvas....the paint is built-up, giving it texture.  I had to stop a few times to let the paint dry, then go back into the paint layers of color.  I did not want to create mud!  This contemporary palette knife painting was so much fun to paint.  Contact Kay for more information. Thanks for looking...Kay

Zest by Kay Wyne

Zest
16" x 16" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Abstract Painting
I got to the studio yesterday and felt that I
needed to punch-up the color on this
painting.  It needed zest.  So I mixed some reds
and pinks, trying to get the right coral color.
I added some carribean blue, diox purple,
and pulled out a white oil bar.  Done!
This is day 21 for the 30/30 Paint Challenge with Leslie Saeta.
I got on a major cleaning, framing, thowing-out junk kick yesterday,
with a busy October coming up, I need to be organized.
I found about a dozen half-finished (or half-started)
paintings.  Maybe tomorrow's post will be 
one of those that I found.  Thanks for looking
at my art....Kay

Deliberate Distraction by Kay Wyne

Deliberate Distraction
18" x 24" Oil on Canvas
Contemporary Abstract Painting
There are many directions this painting could of taken,
but yesterday's final session with it took on more color,
more organic shapes.  When I began this painting months
ago, I was painting a herd of horses, which you can see.  
I got into some nuetrals and earth tones, then in the last 
few days put some loopy colorful lines overlapping and
pulling the piece together.  I thought that the color 
punched it up.  The last two days I have been
pulled away from my easel, therefore the title, Deliberate
Distraction.  Thanks for looking at this blog and
the art posted here.  You can email me for more
information on this painting.  Thanks, Kay

Blowing In The Wind by Kay Wyne


Blowing In The Wind
30" x 40" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Abstract Palette Knife Painting
I am posting this painting because of our Texas weather....the wind has been blowing and blowing and bringing in winter weather.  The wind has kept me awake for two nights...so I thought it was appropriate to post this painting.  This painting would look great above a fireplace or sofa.  These contemporary aspens are looking for a new home.  Contact Kay at kay@kwyne.com for more info.  Thanks for viewing!  Kay

Horizon Series: Abstract Aspens #1111 by Kay Wyne

Horizon Series: Abstract Aspens #1111
This contemporary palette knife painting has layers and layers of color and texture. I started with a base coat of warm gray on sides and front of canvas. After putting my horizon line in, I used oil sticks and brush to apply color. Using the palette knife, I started putting trees in from the horizon line. I wanted more violets, blues and grays to dominate on the canvas. The crimson, burnt orange and turquoise bounce off the cool colors, giving the piece some contrast. The canvas is 36" x 48", and is ready to hang...no fame needed on the gallery wrap canvas. Thanks for viewing this blog and my art.....Kay at 214-532-0325 or kay@kwyne.com

Salon Woman with Accessorie Pomeranian, 30x24, by Sharon Hodges

I woke up with different brain cells firing today....and this is what came off the easel. Who knew? Definitely more abstracted than recent work and alot of fun. I may expand this as a series of paintings 'ripped from the pages of my sketchbook'. I love how paper looks when it is ripped off of spiral bound books...especially heavy drawing paper. This is painted with oil paints and oil sticks, like giant crayons. I LOVE those. Please visit my website, and contact me if your are interested in this or other paintings.

Aspens in Color by Kay Wyne

Aspens in Color
12" x 12" Oil on Masonite

This painting is hanging at the The Dutch Art Gallery. This small painting is only 12" x 12". I was talking to a lady who was interested in this painting....and she was drawn to it because of the colors. I told her that if the painting speaks to her, that is reason enough to consider purchasing. I have four other aspen paintings hanging at Dutch Art in the show. I was amazed at the wonderful art...really good art at the show. If you missed the reception yesterday, here is the show info:

Celebration by Kay Wyne

Celebration
36" x 36" Oil on Canvas
This contemporary abstract painting is hanging at the Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas. It was painted last year and because of the colors and movement in this painting, I named it Celebration. It is appropriate for me to re-post this painting...The Wyne family has been celebrating lately with the engagement of our daughter, Lindsay to Wesley. My painting time has taken a backseat to the engagement, engagement party and wedding plans. But, I hope to get back into the studio today. I have gotten re-charged and very inspired after taking a little trip to Ft. Worth to visit the Kimbell Art Museum yesterday. I hope to have some new paintings to post soon! Thanks for visiting this blog. Please contact Dutch Art Gallery or myself if you are interested in purchasing this painting. kay@wyne.com or 214-532-0325.
