Artists Of Texas Contemporary Paintings and Art

“Quiet Life” ©2018 Niki Gulley SOLD  • 8" x 10” textured oil painting Just sold!  Painted on location in Tyler, TX, I was drawn to this simple red barn. Full of texture and character, I wanted to capture its essence on that beautiful spring day. While the air was still crisp, the sun was strong casting beautiful shadows and welcoming in spring.

“Textures of Time” ©2013 Niki Gulley SOLD •  18" x 24” textured oil painting In my next painting from this barn series, I wanted to show the personality and individuality of this red barn, since it was built by hand from nearby trees on the property by the owner's family. I almost feel like it has a playful twinkle in its windows, inviting us to come closer and check out it's hand-carved timbers and discover what stories it holds. Juxtaposed behind this sturdy oak, two enduring souls, are loaded with character, texture and rustic beauty, monuments to a simpler disappearing way of life.

“Long Shadows,” Nash Farm ©2015 Niki Gulley SOLD  • 10" x 20” textured oil painting Nash Farm, Grapevine Painted on location in Grapevine, TX, I was drawn to this old barn still standing amidst all of the modern housing and commercial buildings encroaching upon it. Full of texture and character, I wanted to capture its essence on that beautiful spring day. While the air was still crisp, the sun was strong casting beautiful shadows from the oaks and welcoming in spring.
