Colors of Summer 10" x 10" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Floral Landscape This small painting is drying in the studio...I was in the mood to paint a floral landscape.  I started with a black acrylic base coat.  Then sketched in my map for the painting with a filbert.  Once I let that layer of paint dry, I pulled out a #10 bright and started layering the juicy oils.  The flowers in the foreground are bold and colorful, and the eye wanders through the grassy field.  This painting is for sale.  Contact  Kay  for purchasing information.  Thanks for viewing....Happy Father's Day to my Dad, Charlie Miller and to Blake and Wes...it's their first Father's Day!  KMW

Color My World 14" x 10" Canvas on Panel Contemporary Floral Landscape This painting is drying at the studio.  I have two layers of paint on the panel, then lots of palette knife work.  I used impasto to get some texture on the smooth canvas.  The photograph may not show, but the clouds are thick, broad strokes of oils with the knife.  I will get this framed once it is dry...it needs to sit right now so that the paint won't get smudged up.  Feel free to contact  ME  for purchasing info.  Thanks for looking, Kay

Blue Skies Above Contemporary Landscape Painting 24" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas I know we are all longing for warm, blue skies with the weather we have been having in Texas.  So today's post is a contemporary landscape painting.  It is very painterly.  I was generous with the paint, and used a wide brush to lay in the colors.  I was at the studio painting for ten hours straight yesterday, and completed two paintings, worked on a large painting, and forgot to take pics.  I am really excited about the two paintings that are signed and drying.  I have a 4 woman show coming up and need to have a dozen new pieces.  More on that later. This painting is hanging at  Dutch Art Gallery  in Dallas, Texas.  Comments or questions....email  ME .  Thanks, Kay

Enchanting 36" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Floral Landscape Painting Enchanting is one of those paintings that went through many stages.  I used a large, heavy duty gallery wrap canvas, therefore the sides of the canvas (about 2 1/2") are also painted.  In my mind, I separated the painting in three parts:  sky/background, mid-ground, and foreground.  All three areas of the canvas had to be different sizes...I didn't want three equal parts.  I wanted the horizon to melt into the sky and recede.  The mid-ground needed to have someone color, but not as much as the foreground.  I used the palette knife and impasto on the florals to create texture and interest.  This painting is hanging at  Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, TX .  Thanks for looking at this blog...

Day #13 in the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge This painting has is bold and colorful.  The sky has a warm glow and the it is bouncing off the vibrant florals in the foreground.  I want the view to feel like they are standing in a tall, thick pasture of wildflowers looking at the sunset.  Thanks for looking at this blog....contact  ME  for more information on this painting.  Thanks, Kay

Beyond 12" x 12" Oil on RayMar Cotton Panel Contemporary Floral Landscape Day #12 in the 30/30 Paint Challenge This landscape is very abstract.  Patches of color and shapes.  The path wanders through out the painting, into the hills.  I mixed and mixed the oil colors...I had loads of paint out on the palette for this small panel.  This is day 12 in the 30/30 Paint Challenge...I am working on a commission along with this landscape series.  More painting in the studio today.  Thanks, Kay

Kaleidoscope Landscape 12" x 12" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Floral Landscape  Day #11 of the 30/30 Paint Challenge As I continue exploring the floral landscape series, I am digging deep into my color palette.  The flowers in the foreground are thick and loose.  The trail of flowers fades into the horizon where the hills/mountains are.  I started with a toned canvas - using scarlet red, it really warmed the canvas up, and there are little pieces of the scarlet showing through on the coulds.  This is my post for Day #11 for Leslie Saeta's Paint Challenge.  Thanks for looking....Be sure to contact  Kay  with any questions concerning the paintings posted here.  Thanks, Kay

Blue Skies Above 24" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Landscape Painting Day #10 in the 30/30 Paint Challenge This is a re-do from a painting that I was not happy with, and although I normally don't go back into a re-do, re-work, re-paint, re-finished painting, but I did this twice.  I am happier with this impressionistic landscape, and I am not going to change it....again.!!!!  I like the hint of the lavender in the foreground, and the swirling, moving clouds.  I used a wide brush and a medium sized palette knife to apply the paint.  Thanks for looking at this blog, and this painting...Kay

Ecstatic Day 12" x 24" Oil on Canvas Canvas needs frame.   Contemporary Floral Landscape Painting Day #9 of the 30 Paintings/30 Days Challenge I started this landscape months ago, got frustrated, and then finished it this week.  I started with a photograph from one of our summers in Michigan, and took my artistic license and winged it.    I wanted soothing clouds and sky, evergreens and spruce trees in the background, and patches of floral color.  It is now drying in the studio, and I have a neat frame to put on it.  Contact  Kay  for more information on this painting.  Thanks for looking....today is day 9 of the 30 Day challenge....be sure to check it out!  Lots of artists painting and posting on a daily basis.  KMW

Colorado Landscape Study 24" x 30" Oil on Canvas Framed in gold plein air frame. Day 8 in Leslie's 30/30 Paint Challenge Today's post is a painting that I did when I returned from Colorado last year.  I was going to post a new painting, but after looking at it on the computer, decided I needed to tweak it today.  So a new painting will be posted tomorrow!  This painting was a good exercise for me, and I concentrated on the background receding, and getting the foreground to pop with color.  Contact  Kay Wyne  with comments or questions.  Thanks, Kay
