KM2582 Fall Glory (autumn, fall, landscape, original oil painting)

This is a study for a larger painting that I have been commissioned to paint. My collectors had the thrill of watching this come to life as they watched me paint it at Brushstrokes Gallery where my studio is housed with my partners John and Anita. This is when it is such fun to have a working studio-gallery where our collectors and art lovers can come in and watch the creative process of painting.

"Rocky Mountain Aspens" ©2011 Niki Gulley
oil on board • 11" x 14"

Aspen Tree Painting by Jill Saur


This 16"x20" aspen tree painting is painted in acrylic.  On one of my trips to Colorado, I journeyed into a mountain wonderland filled with some of the oldest aspen trees in the nation.  It is one of the best kept secret destinations in the country.  The aspens are so large and wide in girth, that many mistake them for birch trees.

I invite you to become a collector and discover the joy of owning artwork that uplifts and inspires.

Snowfall Comes Early oil painting by Niki Gulley


“Snowfall Comes Early” ©2011 Niki Gulley
Oil painting • 24” x 12”

On our drive from Durango to Aspen, Colorado, as we rounded the last switchback near the summit north of Durango, we were greeted by these brilliant orange aspen trees and awestruck by their rare, unusual coloring. With the sun shining intensely, the contrast between the vibrant tangerine foliage, the cobalt blue sky, and the pristine white snow was absolutely breathtaking.

Crystal Mill, Colorado oil painting by Niki Gulley


“Crystal Mill,” Crystal, Colorado ©2011 Niki Gulley
Oil painting • 14” x 11”

My husband and I absolutely love the scenery in Colorado, so we planned our trip to see the aspens turning color in September, and that just happened to coincide with their earliest snowfall on record! In order to capture both the beautiful foliage and the snow before it melted we hiked as quickly as we could up the mountain, and were rewarded with a gorgeous view. I chose this vantage because I liked how the aspen trees perfectly framed the mill and stream in the distance. Then, the sun emerged and made everything sparkle. The colors came alive and dramatic cool shadows were cast in the snow, and I just had to create the scene in paint.

Winter Birch trees oil painting by Niki Gulley


“Climbing Trees IV” ©2011 Niki Gulley
40” x 30” oil on canvas

Growing up in the midwest, I loved the first snowfall of the year when everything would get a beautiful dusting of pristine white powder, including even the tiniest of branches in the treetops above. If you caught that moment early enough in the morning before anything had disturbed the intricate frosted web, it was just magical. I wanted to capture that brief beautiful moment in "Climbing Trees" when the sunlight dances through the icing on the treetops and you can feel yourself looking up in wonderment just like you did when you were a kid. Using extremely thick oil paint and palette knives allowed me to recreate the various textures of the birches and ice-encrusted branches.

"Aspen Rhapsody In Snow" Aspen Snow Scene by Jill Saur

© "Aspen Rhapsody In Snow" by Jill Saur, all rights reserved


I thought it would be appropriate to finish, sign, and photograph "Aspen Rhapsody In Snow" because of all the snow that we were inundated with this week here in Georgia.  This piece is 32"x70".  It is a triptych, acrylic, brush and palette knife painting on a wide canvas.  I am currently going to hang it in my dining room, but I could be persuaded to sell it if you are interested.  I love painting the aspens in snow and have been doing so for over twenty-seven years!  This painting has been quite the labor of love!
