Commissioned Quadriptych Palette Knife Oil Painting by Niki Gulley

 


 ©2022 Niki Gulley
SOLD • Four 28" x 28" canvases to form a 56" x 56" quadriptych • textured mixed media painting

This year I was honored to have my collectors reach out to me and ask me to create a special painting for them on commission. For several years they had been enjoying a 72" quadriptych painting of mine. They loved how it brought them such joy and the feeling of being surrounded by the forest. But, when they decided to build a new home, my original painting was too large to fit over the fireplace in their great room. So, they decided to hang the first painting in another room and requested that I paint this new one smaller and to change the scene so that it would reflect the fall trees that grow around their new house. Voila! I hope you, too, can experience the joy of being surrounded by nature's beauty in this autumn kaleidoscope of colors.

New "Flowing into Autumn" Palette Knife Painting by Niki Gulley

"Flowing into Autumn" ©2019 Niki Gulley
30" x 48" textured oil painting on wrap around canvas

I created "Flowing into Autumn" with many layers of paint, starting with a swirling thin application to form the tangled underbrush and flowing current to thick impasto strokes for texture and energy in the foliage and trunks. Water rushes downstream as autumn leaves dance in the gentle breeze. I hope you experience a feeling of peace and warmth being immersed in the beauty of nature, letting all of your cares drift away.

New Summer Aspen Tree Painting by Texas Artist Niki Gulley

"Aspen Skyscrapers" ©2019 Niki Gulley
SOLD • Textured oil painting • 24" x 18"

Just Sold! Recently, we visited Santa Fe and to escape the heat we ventured up the Santo de Cristo mountains to cool down amongst the beautiful, refreshing aspen trees. In this painting I wanted you to feel that child-like wonder of staring up in into the treetops and the heavens above. Choosing calming greens against a lavender-blue peaceful sky and arranging the aspens so that they meet in the middle, suggests a feeling of togetherness. While organizing the outlying trees in a circular pattern and using thick, curving brushstrokes, creates a joyful, playful mood.

"Skyward Bound" Palette Knife Oil Painting by Niki Gulley

"Skyward Bound" ©2019 Niki Gulley
SOLD • Textured oil painting • 24" x 18"


Just Sold! In this painting I wanted you to feel that child-like wonder of staring up into the treetops and heavens above. Choosing uplifting golds and reds contrasted against a dramatic deep purple sky, I've arranged the aspens vertically and in a circular pattern to give you a sense of laying on the ground, surrounded by the forest. Using diagonal leading lines with the tree trunks and limbs, your eye gazes into the focal point where all of the elements come together. Meanwhile, utilizing thick, curving paint strokes adds to that joyful, playful feeling of hope and discovery.
