Artists Of Texas Contemporary Paintings and Art

“Freedom II"  ©2019 Niki Gulley SOLD •  20" x 30" textured oil painting Just Delivered!  I was recently asked to create this whimsical girl on the swing for a commission by someone who had scene a similar painting of a little boy that I had painted hanging in one of my collector's homes. I was so thrilled to paint this for her! Filled with joy and movement, I hope "Freedom II" captures the spirit of swinging from sturdy branches on a lazy summer day. Using swirling shapes and strokes, in addition to the circular composition, all help to create the energy of the moment while fun pops of color add to the excitement. Life-size bare feet swing toward you adding to the fun of the moment. Set against rolling hills with home in the distance, you can fly high and soar on a dream.

“Momentum"  ©2016 Niki Gulley 24" x 48" textured mixed media painting on wrap around canvas Remember the days of running through piles of raked leaves, hearing the sounds of soft crunching underfoot as leaves go flying all around? A beautiful kaleidoscope of reds, golds and oranges on a crisp fall day! I painted Momentum to bring back those memories of a carefree time and place, when life was simple and playing with friends and siblings was the highlight of your day. Painted with thick oil paint and palette knives, I've left staccato strokes and diagonal lines to add to the feeling of motion, joy and energy while the three dimensionality of the paint, bring the scene to life.

“Scenic Route” ©2015 Niki Gulley SOLD •  Textured Oil Painting on wrap around canvas • 20” x 60” My husband and I love exploring the back roads whenever we’re en route somewhere.
