New Summer Aspen Tree Palette Knife Painting by Niki Gulley

“Aspen Vista Trail, Summer” ©2013 Niki Gulley 16" x 20” textured oil painting on canvas On our Santa Fe Art Trek last year, the temperature started rising in the afternoon, so we headed up into the mountains for cooler breezes to paint the beautiful aspen trees. We were attracted to the brilliant white trunks with their unique peeling bark and dark protruding knots. I liked how the soft dappled light came through the trees and illuminated the path, leading into the distance. Becoming totally lost in the moment, I set out to capture the peacefulness and contentment of being immersed in nature. "Aspen Vista Trail" is available through the Good Art Company Gallery in Fredericksburg, TX. For more information, please contact  goodartcompany.com/gac/.

Transitional Tones IV oil painting by Niki Gulley

“Transitional Tones III” ©2010 Niki Gulley 12” x 12” oil painting I created these aspen trees with palette knife and extremely thick oil paint to achieve texture and dimension. I love how the bright colors pop and brighten up any room, and how the strokes contain so much movement and energy. The image is painted around the sides of the 1.5 inch deep gallery wrap canvas so that it looks three-dimensional and can be hung as is without a frame for a contemporary look. These chunky aspen paintings look great in pairs or threes. See NikiGulley.com/?page_id=229 for companion paintings or e-mail me at Niki@NikiGulley.com with any questions. .
