"The Old Oak Tree," Winfrey Point ©2018 Niki Gulley

SOLD • 11" x 14" textured oil painting

Just Sold! I painted this noble oak on location near our house by White Rock Lake at Winfrey Point. I loved its massive size and its beautiful, twisted trunk and bark. Painting near the base of the tree so that you could get a sense of its canopy surrounding you, I set out to capture its strength and glory. A sliver of the lake peeks through in the distance and I hope you are transported to this pictureque peaceful sopt, immersed by the beauty of nature.

New "Breaking Through" White Rock Lake Painting by Dallas Artist Niki Gulley

"Breaking Through," White Rock Lake ©2018 Niki Gulley

24" x 18" textured oil painting

On a peaceful spring morning, I set up my easel at White Rock Lake to capture the sun rising behind this beautiful, tangled Cottonwood. I liked how the warm light accentuated the tree's curves and textured bark, and I chose this vertical composition to show off its size and strength. In the distance, the light starts to break through the clouds,  causing  the water's surface to glisten and illuminating the landscape. I hope this scene gives you a sense of peace and lifts your spirits for what the day has to bring.

New "Old Soul" White Rock Lake Live Oak Tree Painting by Niki Gulley

"Old Soul" Winfrey Point, White Rock Lake©2017 Niki Gulley

12" x 16" oil painting

During the Oil Painters of America convention held last spring, artists from around the country gathered one day at White Rock Lake to capture the beautiful surroundings. I was drawn to this magnificent, massive live oak tree at Winfrey Point. Setting up my easel close to its base so that I could see and capture all of its gnarly trunk, roots and limbs, I kept the background softer to help show off its structure. I hope you, too, can feel its energy, wisdom and strength.

"Diagonal Shadows" - New White Rock Lake Painting by Niki Gulley

“Diagonal Shadows” White Rock Lake ©2015 Niki Gulley

12” x 24” oil on canvas

Sunset draws lengthening shadows across the grassy waters edge at Sunset Bay, White Rock. The lake shimmers in the evening glow as sky high above fills with deep blues and before you the soft, moody colors stretch out, long lines beckoning you into the complex diagonal composition. Rich texture models the leaves, branches and tree trunk rimmed in the sunset and shadow. Vivid masses of color form the foliage on the opposite bank, fall at its peak. The long cast shadows draw you into the tranquil landscape and the peaceful, dreamy sunset at White Rock Lake.

If interested in purchasing "Cypress Shadows," please contact the Good Art Company Gallery, goodartcompany.com/gac/.
