Artists Of Texas Contemporary Paintings and Art

  Crazy times...that's not new but as we go through our day we can hope for a new start, fresh beginnings. I was inspired to create this as I watched the sky over my part of Texas and thought...no matter what is going on, "There Is Always Another Day"! Hope when things get challenging for you that you might look up into the sky, notice the Light and trust, there will always be another day...Amen 6"x6"x1/8" Mixed Media on Panel, Available Framed or Unframed Click HERE for purchase info.

  Hard to believe but the inspiration for this painting was a view of an area that was dry, with dead leaves and very few patches of green. I decided to paint this as I imagined it could be, filled with color and exaggerated brushstrokes on a vibrant red background. Yes, now this tells the story of what it could be or even what the area’s true identity really is.... Sometimes what our eyes perceive is not the whole truth, maybe there is more? Enjoy your day and practice looking a bit longer at your surroundings and maybe more will be revealed ! 20"x16" Mixed Media on Canvas/Available Click HERE for purchase info.

I'm always early for appointments. As I was standing around waiting for my day to begin the morning I saw this scene I was captivated by the strong sunlight on the back of the old building and as a result of the yellow glow on the building the shadows leaned towards purple. I did exaggerate the colors but I wanted to draw the viewer into the scene to suggest we look again at the simple shapes the light can reveal and to also realize that even the shadows have color and a story to tell. The shadows are just waiting for the Light to move over them to expose their beauty. Maybe you can discover some depth to an otherwise ordinary scene...so much to discover!

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

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 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.

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
