"Spring Radiance" by Kyle Wood

"Spring Radiance"

40" x 52" Oil on Gallery Wrap Panels

Commission Piece

Here is my latest oil painting that I have been working on for several weeks now.  This is a piece that I was commissioned to do for a client through The Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, Texas.  The client loved the colors in one of my existing pieces at the gallery and wanted me to paint a larger painting. We both met and talked and decided to paint a triptych on gallery wrap panels.  Before finalizing the design, I did a couple of sketches and few color studies (One in Spring Colors and the other in Fall).  The client liked the Spring Colors, so this is what we ended up painting!  Overall, the painting was fun and it was great experience getting to do a commission.  Enjoy!

Fossil Rim Bluebonnets by Sheri Jones

Fossil Rim Bluebonnets 

9x12 oil on Raymar canvas panel

I painted this today on the outskirts of Fossil Rim in Glen Rose.  Fossil Rim is a wildlife center and filled with wild animals and wildflowers. 

I met my friends, Jill Randall, Joyce Thomas and Vickie Guthrie there to enjoy the warm temperatures and seasonal flowers. The flowers are in full bloom and just spectacular this year.  They are a sight to see and enjoy. We were thrilled to be outside painting together. This is available for purchase $250.00

"Texas Traditions" by Kyle Wood

"Texas Traditions" - 6" x 8" Oil on Canvas by Kyle Wood

Here is small oil painting that will be exhibited at The Texas Wild Bunch Show & Sale in Kerrville. The show dates are closing in very quickly and will be March 17 & 18 at The YO Ranch Resort Hotel and Conference Center. Inspiration for this painting came from a spring outing to Ennis, Texas. Beautiful fields of Bluebonnets here with many opportunities to see cattle grazing or resting in the fields. Enjoy!

"Evening Melody" by Kyle Wood

"Evening Melody" 11" x 14" Oil on Canvas

Here is my latest oil painting on my easel. I titled this one "Evening Melody" because of the rhytmatic pattern that is going on in the sky and ground. It seems as though one is playing the melody of a song, while the other is harmonizing. Both are required in order for the song to be full and complete. For this painting, I chose to paint a familiar subject of mine, but with little more drama and mood. I wanted to play with color to see where it would take me. I love how the mixture of the warm red Indian Paintbrushes radiant warmth against the cool Bluebonnets and green grasses in the foreground. Even the sky is very dramatic with rich lavenders, pinks, and oranges against the soft blue sky peeking out behind the clouds. Complimentary colors (red & green; blue and orange) were used to create unity and harmony throughout the painting. Overall, it was fun painting and look forward to painting other variations that play with color.

To see more of my work, please visit www.kwoodfineart.com, or for a more personal encounter, please visit The Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, Texas. For more information, please visit www.dutchartusa.com.

Also, I will be having an exhibit at The Clarksville Fine Art Festival on Saturday May 28th from 9:00 to 4:00 PM. Clarksville is located East of Paris, Texas, on Highway 82. It is approximately 2 and 1/2 hours Northeast of the DFW metroplex.

Enjoy and have artful day!

Bluebonnets and Cactus by Sheri Jones

BlueBonnets and Cactus

I know the bluebonnets aren't blooming yet, but know they are coming. The weather has been beautiful recently and Spring is right around the corner.

I am getting excited about participating in the Paint the Town Paint Out April 15 - 17th. The area has a wealth of inspiration for the plein air painter. The wildflowers should be in full bloom and beautiful.

This painting is available for purchase.

"Hill Country Vista" by Kyle Wood

"Hill Country Vista" - 16" x 20" Oil on Canvas

This painting reminds me of all the beautiful rolling hills and winding roads that seem to go on forever and ever through The Texas Hill County. There is so many neat places, towns to visit in this region of Texas. It is especially beautiful when the Bluebonnets and other wildflowers, like Indian Paintbrushes, Prickly Poppies, and Prickly Pear Cactus are blooming. I really enjoy painting landscapes depicting the countrysides covered in wildflowers. Trips that I have taken through The Texas Hill Country have served as a great inspiration and resource for many of my oil paintings, whether it is a spring day filled with aroma of wildflowers or a crisp, cool autumn day soaking in the breathtaking colors in the trees.

"Morning Break" by Kyle Wood

"Morning Break" - 22" x 28" Oil on Canvas

"Morning Break" is another one of my oil paintings inspired for all the trips that I have taken over the years through the Texas Hill Country. The Hill Country region of Texas is such a serene and relaxing area to visit. During many Spring Seasons, when Fall & Winter moisture has been abundant, the fields can become quite colorful with wildflowers. For this painting, I chose to do an early morning scene with sun peaking out behind the clouds. Complementary colors are being used quite frequently here with lots of purples next to yellows and oranges next to blues. For more variation, I mixed in some indian paintbrushes, which are typically reddish-orange in color with the vibrant bluebonnets. The water in the ruts of the road suggest that it has just rained. The clouds are beginning to break away so that the sun can shine down into the valley and the field of vibrant wildflowers. What a wonderful place to be on a spring morning.

"Lone Star Vision" by Kyle Wood

"Lone Star Vision" - 18" x 24" Oil on Canvas

Today, it is a cold and dreary day outside and we just had 6" snow this morning here in Terrell, Texas. The painting above, reminds us of the spring weather that many Texans, if not all, are probably longing for. Soon, winter will lose its grip and fields will be brighten and sparkled with freshly aroma of our state flower, "The Bluebonnet." I titled this painting "Lone Star Vision", because this truly speaks Texas and it is my interpretation of all the places that I have visited, especially in and around Fredericksburg. The beautiful nestled cabin and barn in a field of bluebonnets are part of the rich heritage and culture of our state.

This painting is currently available for sale at
The Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, Texas.

"Hill Country Blues" by Kyle Wood

"Hill Country Blues" - 16" x 20" Oil on Canvas

"Hill Country Blues" is a reminder to me that winter will soon fade and Spring will reign over Texas. Come late March or Early April, the roadsides will begin to be dotted with Texas Bluebonnets and Indian Paintbrushes. I have taken many trips to the Texas Hill Country and it is just one of the most serene and beautiful areas of Texas. Lots of Live Oak Trees and picturesque views of rolling hills. When the Bluebonnets and other wildflowers are blooming, it makes it even better. This painting is currently available for sale on my website at www.kwoodfineart.com. Have an artful day!
