"Painted Hills, Texas Hill Country” ©2012 Niki Gulley
20" x 60” textured oil on canvas
Usually in Texas you see an expansive carpet of cobalt when the bluebonnets are in bloom and conditions are just right. But, occasionally you will happen across a rarer field of Indian Paintbrush, and that unexpected sea of red is such a delight for your senses! I wanted to capture that excited feeling and the kaleidoscope of colors in "Painted Hills" while driving through the Texas hill country in sprintime. Created with extremely thick paint and palette knives, in person this hilly landscape is filled with texture and vibrant wildflowers that dance in the open terrain.
Niki will be exhibiting her textured oil paintings at the Deep Ellum Arts Festival in Dallas this weekend. Please stop by her booth and check out her recent creations.
