New Autumn Path Palette Knife Oil Painting by Texas Artist Niki Gulley

Autumn at the Dallas Arboretum ©2013 Niki Gulley

SOLD • 40" x 30" textured oil painting

Just Delivered - For this commissioned painting, my collectors asked me to create something special for them which would bring back fond memories. They love hiking and nature, and here in Dallas, they have a particular fondness for the Arboretum. Using thick textured oil paint with palette knives, I created this Arboretum fall path so that it is filled with color and dappled light, mystery and romanticism, and texture and energy!

"Reflections in Time" autumn oil painting by Niki Gulley

“Reflections in Time” ©2011 Niki Gulley

Oil on canvas • 24” x 36”

This painting is inspired by one of my favorite spots just ten minutes from our home in Dallas. It was a perfect autumn day – about 70° with a slight breeze and the peaking autumn colors were more vibrant than usual. With such a gentle wind, the vivid foliage and gorgeous fluffy clouds were reflected fairly clearly in the water and yet at the same time, I chose to create fluid moving strokes to suggest the peaceful energy in that moment.
