Painting Autumn in All Its Glory with Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

24” x 12” textured acrylic painting on canvas

While hurricane Helene created such devastation in Asheville, we’ve been looking for scenery in the area that can lift your spirits. And, the explosion of vibrant fall color here does not disappoint! The maples are displaying their full autumn glory, so I had to capture those ruby reds for you. May this kids’ perspective bring you the joy of carefree days and hopes for a bright future.

Palette Knife Painter Niki Gulley Paints Covered Bridges

SOLD • 9" x 12" textured acrylic painting on canvas panel

Just Sold! We have landed in New York, about an hour from Buffalo, in Scott’s hometown. The fall leaves are just barely turning colors and the temps are in the 70s. Beautiful!

Our first stop – Scott played a round of golf with old friends and since the grounds were so pretty, I decided to set up my easel at the golf course. So, here is my first painting of a covered bridge. This was a great introduction to more covered bridges to come!

"Reflecting Fall" Palette Knife Painting by Niki Gulley

9" x 12" textured acrylic painting on panel

We are loving the peaceful surroundings of Old Orchard Beach, Maine. We booked this picturesque campsite where we have our own dock and lake view. This morning we woke up to this serene scene, and of course, I just had to paint it! Golden light illuminating the beginnings of fall with a gentle ripple causing the reflections to meld into a beautiful symphony of colors.

"Fall's Arrival" in Maine - Palette Knife Painting by Niki Gulley

9" x 12" textured acrylic painting on canvas panel

Oh Maine! Such rugged beauty! In this piece I painted just outside of Bar Harbor, you can see the beginnings of fall hues. Birch trees are starting to vibrate with color, foreground grasses and wildflowers are bursting with joy and views over the vast ocean show glimpses of Bar Island nestled in Frenchman Bay.
