Abstracted Aspen Tree Paintings by Niki Gulley

"Natural Textures II" ©2013 Niki Gulley

24" x 24" textured oil painting on wrap around canvas

Bordering on the edge of abstraction and the cusp of realism, Natural Textures is loaded with layers and layers of paint, built up with thin glazes and then palette knife to create extreme dimension and depth.

 Hang it alone, pair it with Natural Textures II to create a diptych, 

or for a larger space, hang it with Natural Textures III to form a rhythmic triptych.

"Aqua Dreams" New Textured oil painting by Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

“Aqua Dreams” ©2013 Niki Gulley

36” x 60” textured oil on canvas

When we arrived at this tranquil spot, the early morning light was very cool in color, but as the sun began to rise from the horizon, it shone this beautiful warm light that shimmered on the water’s surface and cast its hope of what was to come from the brand new day. I remember the peacefulness I felt in that moment, and a sense that anything was possible. In Aqua Dreams, by showing the contrast in the cool aqua/blues in the foreground waters against the warm golden glow on the distant pond’s edge, I wanted to share that feeling of hope and promise communicated by nature.
