Soaking Up Sunshine 14" x 14" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Floral Still Life "Soaking Up Sunshine" is full of color and warmth.  This contemporary still life is very painterly, as I put a my strokes of color on the canvas, I left it alone.  You can see the brush strokes, as the color is vibrant and not muddy.  This small 14" x 14" gallery wrap canvas has the sides painted, so it is ready to hang. This happy and fun still life painting would make a wonderful Christmas gift for someone....contact  ME  for purchasing info.  Thanks,  Kay Wyne

Peaceful Contemporary Landscape Painting 12" x 16" Oil on Canvas This painting went through some difficult stages before I decided it was complete.  Actually, the canvas was larger, and I cut the canvas down after I had finished painting.  I normally don't do that, but I felt that the composition worked better without so much canvas.  I believe it was originally an 18" x 18".  I used a palette knife all the way on this one...there is texture and depth in the landscape.  The skies are soft and whispy. This painting is back from the framers and is ready to hang... Contact  Kay  for purchasing information on this painting.  Thanks for looking...Kay

Colors Of My World 8" x 16" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Palette Knife Painting This small landscape painting is colorful and has a dreamy look to it.  I think that the viewer can put his or her imagination to work when looking at this one.  The color palette is beautiful...with so many colors and the cad reds and oranges bounce off the greens and turqoise.  This painting does not require a frame since it is on a gallery wrap canvas.  Contact  Kay  for more information on this colorful little painting...thanks for looking.  Kay

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.

Impulse 18" x 18" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Abstract Painting I started this painting on impulse....just to throw  paint on the canvas after working on commissions during the month of December.  My studio mates have asked me what it is, and I honestly don't know. One of my fellow artists said it looked like cactus,  another said flowers, and the one that makes  the most sense to me was the aerial view of a golf course. I was working with Sharon's piles of paint since they were going to go to waste and dry up.  It felt good to just stand in front of the easel and paint for the sake of  painting. The colors and shapes were put on  the canvas...hopefully to make an interesting canvas that will bring a smile to your face! This is painting #2 in the 30 Paintings in 30 Days with Leslie Saeta.   I will b...

Rio Grande Colors 12" x 16" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Abstract Landscape This is day 8 of the  30 Paintings in 30 Days with Leslie Saeta .

Still Life in progress... Here are a couple of pics of a still life in progress. The set-up took alot of time and thought.... great color, texture, light, shadows and composition.    Don Sahli  and Sharon Hodges  spent quite a bit of  time setting upset it up this arrangement. Once Sharon started painting it,  I decided  I had to get in on the fun.  Don has a  great collection of beautiful fabrics, pottery and  antiques to choose from when setting up a still life for a painting...whether it is indoors or outdoors. I quickly blocked in the abstract shapes and started  on the colors.   After several hours, I am getting the colors, shadows,  light and shapes  on the canvas.  I have more to do today,  and can't wait to put more thick paint on.  More photos tomorrow....Thanks f...
