Artists Of Texas Contemporary Paintings and Art

  I surprised myself when I used these colors to create this painting. I chose more neutral ones to be a backdrop for the sparks of random color peaking through instead of bold color throughout. I wanted to express how I felt when I viewed the remains of an area near my home that had survived a storm and saw new growth. In the middle of the death and sadness of the event I saw new life overcoming adversity and it was a reminder that yes we can go through the storm and there will be new life and a new beginning on the other side. Art can be healing. The title, “Survived”, is one we can all wear as we push through the our storms. 20"x20"x2.0” Mixed Media on Gallery Wrapped Canvas/Available Click HERE for more info.

Sometimes after I've been painting several hours I step back and am surprised to see an image I didn't purposely paint. In addition to those surprises some paintings seem to paint themselves with little effort. This painting, "The Way Out Is Up" is one of those special paintings. When I stand and stare at it with my eyes fixed on it all of a sudden I feel transported to the middle of a forest. I can hear the birds singing and the breeze gently rustling the leaves as a sense of calm pours over me. I was very surprised at how effortlessly this painting came together with all it's subtle greens and the light from above filtering through. The story behind the title for this painting is this...I get lost very easily and so how do I find my way? I need to look up... In the forest if I was lost and if I had remembered any of my "cub scout mom lessons" I might have a compass with me but otherwise maybe I would look up and search for the sun to get an ide...

I live in a city that has had incredible growth but I’m not always happy to see buildings destroyed to put up new ones. I am a bit nostalgic and wonder why buildings can’t just be restored. I looked to the landscape to watch how in nature an area can be altered by the years and evolve. Restoration appears to be an ongoing occurrence and perhaps a model for our lives. I named my painting of this landscape “Restoration” to remind me of the rebirth we can go through and yet still retain who we are, just with a fresh, clean start.   20"x20"x2.0” Mixed Media on Gallery Wrapped Canvas/Available Click HERE for more info.

Do you see the building? Some miss it and just see the trees or they see it but don't think much about it. Shelter comes in many forms and when you need it the search begins. It is easy to miss that the shelter you need is right in front of you. We look high and low but the truth is what I'm trying to show in this painting and so I titled it "Shelter In Plain Sight". Isn't it a comfort to know that? It's not an easy concept but I have learned that it is indeed true. Next time you find yourself in need try looking right where you are and realize you are protected and sheltered from the storm by the Son! 24"x24"x2.0" Mixed Media on Gallery Wrapped Canvas/Available Click HERE for more info.

Wheat Fields 30" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Landscape A big sky, fast moving clouds and whips wheat fields in a warm summer day.  That's what I was imagining when I painted this contemporary landscape.  The layers of paint are thick, and the brushstrokes can be seen up close.  This painting is available for purchase.  Contact  Kay  for more info.  Thanks for looking at this blog!  KMW

Wheat Fields 30" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Landscape Big fluffy clouds moving across the wide open sky, and a colorful field of wheat make this painting a very pleasant one to view.  The eye moves across the field, back to the horizon line and then up to cloud formations.  You get a sense of the depth of the field, and the big sky.  This painting is finished, with the sides of the gallery wrap canvas painted.  Framing is optional, but "Wheat Fields" is ready for a new home.  Contact  Kay  for more information.  Thanks for looking...have an artful day.  KMW
