Painting in the Texas Hill Country with Impressionist Niki Gulley

 

“Shades of Blue” ©2026 Niki Gulley
24" x 12" textured acrylic painting on canvas

I wanted to capture that beautiful soft light illuminating the lake this morning while accentuating the perky wildflowers in the foreground. It was such a peaceful spot and I wanted that emotion to come through, too. Choosing a light, bright palette not only adds to that calm feeling, but really makes the cheerful blooms pop. A beautiful old gnarly live oak hugs the scene, inviting you to explore the colorful field ahead. I hope you can feel the joy and tranquility of springtime with the wildflowers abloom in the Texas!
