Abstract Aspen Painting by Palette Knife Artist Niki Gulley

  

               


"Knot in the Woods II" ©2023 Niki Gulley
20" x 30" textured mixed media painting 
on 1.5" wrap around canvas with the painting continuing around the edges

Scrolling bark peels back like white washed parchment revealing secrets in the deeply textured wood below. A painting of grace and beauty, its verticality is offset by diagonal glowing autumn colors. Each stroke defined by thick textured paint and rich colors contrasted against subtle ivories, strike a reverberating chord and create a visual vibration that resonates in an optical song.

"A Knot in the Woods" Abstract Aspen Painting by Niki Gulley

  

              

"Knot in the Woods" ©2023 Niki Gulley
30" x 30" textured mixed media painting 
on 1.5" wrap around canvas with the painting continuing around the edges

Bordering on the edge of abstraction and the cusp of realism, Knot in the Woods is loaded with layers of paint, built up with thin glazes and then palette knife to create extreme dimension. Choosing to come in tight on the subject, I played around with various strokes and paint thicknesses to add depth and dimension. Splashes of gold and pops of fire-engine red add excitement and energy to the expansive aspen forest.

"Counting Time" Contemporary Aspen Tree Painting by Niki Gulley

 

“Counting Time" ©2022 Niki Gulley
SOLD • 30" x 40" textured mixed media painting on 1.5" wrap around cradled board with the painting continuing around the edges

Just Sold! Capturing the excitement and energy I feel while being immersed in the nature, "Counting Time" is loaded with vibrant autumn colors, extremely thick textured paint, movement and spontaneity. Peeling, knotted aspen trees stretch deeper and deeper into the woods, counting time as their foliage dances in the breeze creating an uptempo rhythm and filling the forest with its gorgeous symphony.
