This palette knife painting is very impressionistic and moody.  I pushed and scraped the oils around with the knife.  I look at this painting and see different images appear each time.  You can visualize and imagine what is in the distance at the horizon.  This painting is framed in a silver floater frame, and is very handsome.  Contact Kay Wyne for more information on this painting.  Thanks, Kay

Landscape of My Mind by Kay Wyne

Landscape of My Mind

12" x 12" oil on RayMar Cotton Panel

Contemporary Landscape Painting

Day #5 in the Leslie Saeta Paint Challenge

My panel was painted with an underpainting of magenta.  I decided to use a new bright brush by Monarch on this painting...It was loaded with thick juicy paint as I put my paint down, and did not go back in to move it around.  I wanted the texture the paint to be seen.  The road is winding through the countryside...fading into the horizon.  This painting is very abstract.  I did not use a photograph as a reference, just what was in my mind....thus the title, "Landscape of My Mind".  This panel is drying at the studio, and is for sale.  Contact ME for purchasing info.  Thanks for looking.....Kay

Color variation and texture make this contemporary landscape painting interesting.  I mixed and mixed the oils as I moved across the canvas.  When looking at this painting, sometimes I see patches of flowers, and sometimes I see water.  This painting is dry, and ready for a new home.  Framing is optional because the sides of the painting are painted.  Contact Kay for purchasing info.  Thanks for looking at this blog...Kay

Anyway The Wind Blows by Kay Wyne

Anyway The Wind Blows

36" x 36" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Landscape Painting

My color palette with just about every color in the book....lots of violets, reds, greens, ochres, turquoise, raspberry ....it is all in there.  I can imagine standing in a large open field with the wind blowing, and seeing so many colors, with them fading off into the horizon.  Every blade of tall grass is a different  in color, giving this painting a fresh contemporary feel.  I would hope that the viewer would look at this painting and be able to feel the wind whipping around.  This painting is ready to hang...with or without a frame.   Contact Kay for more info on this painting.  Kay

Field of Colors by Kay Wyne

Field of Color

30" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
Floral Landscape

Field of Color is now drying at the studio...the thick layers of paint will take some time to dry.  My focus on painting this landscape was achieving harmonious colors that work well together, and please the eye.  Here is a close-up---you can see the thick application of paint and the texture.  I used a palette knife all the way.  I was in the studio mixing and mixing piles of paint, getting the colors all to relate to each other.

Contact ME for purchasing information.  Thanks for looking at the art posted on this blog. Have an artful day....Kay Wyne  p.s.  Happy Birthday to my Dad, Charlie Miller...he is the best!  He is 87 years young.

Color of Summer by Kay Wyne

Color of Summer

10" x 20" Oil on RayMar Cotton Panel

Contemporary Landscape Painting

Pushing, pulling, scraping and laying in the oils with my palette knife gives this painting an impressionistic feeling.  I started with an underpainting using a brush.  After looking at it for a couple of months on my easel, I decided I needed to take a different approach and repainted it with the knife.  I am much more satisfied with the outcome, especially with the color relationships.  The burnt orange contrasting against the violet and greens makes it pop. The colors of the landscape remind me of how a hot and dry summer day feels....therefore, the name, "Color of Summer".  I can't wait to put a frame on this panel once I varnish it.  This painting will be for sale once it dries.  Contact Kay for purchasing info.  Thanks, Kay

Color My World by Kay Wyne

Color My World

14" x 10" Canvas on Panel

Contemporary Floral Landscape

This painting is drying at the studio.  I have two layers of paint on the panel, then lots of palette knife work.  I used impasto to get some texture on the smooth canvas.  The photograph may not show, but the clouds are thick, broad strokes of oils with the knife.  I will get this framed once it is dry...it needs to sit right now so that the paint won't get smudged up.  Feel free to contact ME for purchasing info.  Thanks for looking, Kay

My Kind of Day by Kay Wyne

My Kind Of Day

8" x 8" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Landscape Painting

This is small landscape painting was painted with a flat brush and with thick oils.  The painting has depth, and you can follow the path into the field, back to the horizon.  I want the viewer to feel as if he or she is looking out into the spacious landscape, looking at the beautiful vista.  

Here is a pic of the painting hanging, with the edges of the gallery wrap canvas...small parts of the black background peek through.  Framing is not necessary...once I varnish this piece it will be ready to hang!  Contact Kay for more info.  Thanks for looking!  Kay

Misty by Kay Wyne

Misty

30" x 30" Oil on Canvas

Contemporary Palette Knife Painting

This painting needs a handsome frame.  

This palette knife painting has gone through many changes, with layers and layers of color.  I moved and pushed the paint around, changed the colors, changed the horizon line and the path.  It was a misty and moody day in Dallas...and I saw alot of the greys, lavenders and the start of spring green when I painted this.  It has an impressionistic feel to it.  I don't know how long it will take to dry, even with the impasto.....but I think it will look nice framed up.  Contact Kay for more information on this painting.  Thanks for looking at this blog.....Kay

Enchanting by Kay Wyne

Enchanting

36" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Floral Landscape Painting

Enchanting is one of those paintings that went through many stages.  I used a large, heavy duty gallery wrap canvas, therefore the sides of the canvas (about 2 1/2") are also painted.  In my mind, I separated the painting in three parts:  sky/background, mid-ground, and foreground.  All three areas of the canvas had to be different sizes...I didn't want three equal parts.  I wanted the horizon to melt into the sky and recede.  The mid-ground needed to have someone color, but not as much as the foreground.  I used the palette knife and impasto on the florals to create texture and interest.  This painting is hanging at Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, TX.  Thanks for looking at this blog...Kay

Blue Skies Above by Kay Wyne

Blue Skies Above
24" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Landscape Painting

Blue Skies Above is a very painterly painting.  I used broad sweeping brush strokes on the sky to give it movement and depth.  I didn't skimp on the application of paint, as there is texture built up on the canvas.  The clouds fade into the horizon.  This painting is part of a current exhibit at Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, Texas.  Contact ME or Pam at the the gallery for purchasing information.  Thanks for looking at this blog...Kay

Blue Skies Above by Kay Wyne

Blue Skies Above

24" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Landscape Painting

Blue Skies Above is now one of my favorite paintings in the studio.  I reworked this painting several times, and I worked on the color changes.  The sky is very thick with layers of oil applied with the palette knife and wide brush.  The greens and grey lavenders are earthy.  The sky and horizon line fade in the distance.  Your eye can follow the road as it wanders through the painting.  This painting would look great in a frame, although it can be hung without.  Contact Kay for more info.  Thanks for looking....Kay
