Flutter by Kay Wyne


Flutter
24" x 24" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Abstract Palette Knife Painting
Red dragonflies are all over the gardens at the Dallas Arboretum.  I worked off of a photograph taken by friend Mark Malone.  It was an amazing photo, and I went abstract with it.  I exaggerated the colors, and implied that the dragonfly was fluttering over some flowers.  The oils were applied with a palette knife so there is plenty of texture on the canvas.  Sides of the canvas are painted, so framing is optional.  Contact Kay for purchasing info.  Thanks, Kay

Flutter by Kay Wyne

Flutter
24" x 24" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
This contemporary palette knife painting was inspired by a red dragonfly photo taken by Mark Malone last summer.  I believe he had the dragonflies in his garden.  

I liked the clean, crisp colors.....no mud.  Cad orange, cad green, magenta, sky blue, and white were all out on my palette for this painting.  I was very careful not mix colors too much because you really can't recover for muddy colors once they are on the canvas.  A little bit abstract with the hard edges and large shapes. Contemporary, abstract, colorful and textural are characteristics of this painting.  

Contact Kay for more information on this painting.  No frame required with the gallery wrap canvas....ready to hang!  Thanks, Kay

Dilly-Dally by Kay Wyne


Dilly-Dally
Abstract Dragonfly Painting
30" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
I really got into this palette knife painting yesterday at the studio.  The basic shapes did not change, but the colors were all mixed, and layers of thick oils give this canvas texture.  I have so much paint on the canvas, it will take a long time to dry.  Here are a few pics of my progression with this painting:
 Drawing out the big shapes on the canvas...I usually do this with a filbert brush and paint.
 Covering the canvas with paint...filling in with bold colors.  Making sure that I like the shapes and placement of them.
Using several different sizes of palette knifes, working with the paint, moving it around on the canvas.  This stage of the painting is so much fun!  If I make a stroke I don't like, I just scrape it off....Thanks for looking at what I am doing in the studio...If you have any questions or comments, please contact ME.  Thanks for looking....Kay

This is a piece that I started in the

knife painting, and it was so much fun to 
watch her demo and then teach us.  This

abstract and interesting.  
A special thanks to Mark Malone

beautiful red dragonfly.  I couldn't resist 
painting it after seeing it!

Interupted Dreams by Kay Wyne





Interupted Dreams

36" x 36" Oil on Heavy Duty Gallery Wrap Canvas

Contemporary Abstract
This painting is hanging at the studio, and is ready to ship to a new home.  There is a dragonfly on the canvas, along with geometric shapes that are randomly placed.  I felt like I was having a dream while painting, and that I kept waking up.  You know that feeling.  Therefore, the canvas has an interupted or disjointed feel.  Thanks for looking at this blog....contact Kay at kay@kwyne.com for more information  on this painting.  KMW
