This painting has a new home! This is one of my Wildflower Landscapes that I painted in 2014. I worked on a series of them, and have explored many possibilities with this subject matter. I am starting next year out with a paint challenge, and hoping to have a creative and productive 2015. I think I will paint whatever I feel like painting...with Roosters and Cows at the top of my list. I hope you all have a safe and fun New Years Eve! Kay

Painting in the Garden District with Niki Gulley
"Pretty in Pink," New Orleans ©2014 Niki Gulley • 12" x 9" palette knife oil painting
New Orleans Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Day 3, The Garden District
On our third day of the New Orleans workshop, we rode the trolley to the Garden District and set out to capture the beautiful architecture while the photographers went in search of the perfect shot. Several of us were attracted to this beautiful grand pink house, and in particular I loved the old oak tree framing it. That evening, we dined again on a delicious Cajun dinner at Brennan's and took in some local talent at the jazz clubs afterwards. A fun day!

Roseate Spoonbill - Florida Bird Painting - Nancy Medina Art
Florida Spoonbill Painting
by Nancy Medina
16X20
Oil on Linen
I've been wanting to paint a Spoonbill for some time, mainly because they are beautiful birds, and they are pink! Since I'm heading to Florida very soon to teach, it seemed a good time to unveil my Roseate fellow. Upon closer inspection, with his spoon shaped nose, perhaps he is does not cut the elegant silhouette of the Blue Heron, but I still find him very appealing, with his lemon yellow face paint and his scarlet feathers. Wouldn't it be kismet if I were to actually see one of these fellows during my visit? If so, you'll be the first to hear about it!

Little Joys Sunflower is presented for you step by step on my art blog - and was named very late last night after a very long day. The hubby had to go to the ER today, but is doing much better now. It's the little joys, the thankfulness of having love and a loving partner in life, that make it all worthwhile....

This is one of those wet days I like to go out and paint. To me, these days are interesting and you never really know what you might see. As I was painting along of course it was raining before, during, and after I packed up. Luckily I was able to get it down before it became wet enough the paint wouldn't stick, then it's just time to pack up or grab another canvas.

This leaf was sitting on my windshield
as I drove away from my house this morning.
I noticed and paused at the
stop sign at the end of our street,
grabbed my cell phone, and got a shot.
A neighbor had just pulled up behind me
so I had start driving again.
I am glad I got the one shot,
because by the time I got to the next
stop sign, it had blown away!

Violet Sky Sunflower and Going to the Birds - Flower Paintings by Nancy Medina Art
Violet Sky Sunflower Solo
by Nancy Medina
14X14
Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Violet Sky Sunflower Solo was one of a few new paintings progressing in Flower Mound Studio, including a rendition of one of my favorite birds, the Roseate Spoonbill. I love these birds because they are...pink! I'm still working on this little feathered fellow, right now he looks a bit like he's just survived a hurricane, so his plumes need combing and his legs need a shave, too, while we're at it! Today the hubby came home from work with a bug, so I've been nursing hubby, obeying the pugs, and painting. At least I'm getting my exercise, not to mention reacquainting myself with that room I rarely enter, the kitchen. There's a big white square thing with fire coming out of it, I'm pretty sure that's the stove. Thank goodness they invented the microwave, though. I shudder to think what would happen if I turned on that thing that produces actual flames.
Roseate Spoonbill, in need of a bit of grooming....

Painting in the French Quarter with Niki Gulley, New Orleans Art Trek
"Flying High," New Orleans ©2014 Niki Gulley • 12" x 9" palette knife oil painting
New Orleans Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Day 2, Afternoon Location: The French Quarter
That afternoon, we chose this quieter picturesque alley, loaded with color and life. I loved the vibrant flags flying high from each balcony, while others chose interesting cafés, balconies and storefronts to paint. That night we met up with the photographers and dined on a delicious dinner at Mr. B's Bistro. A perfect end to the day!

As I post this today the wind is howling and makes me feel as I did the day I painted this small painting. It was a cold and windy day at White Rock Lake. As you can imagine, it was hard keeping all of my painting equipment together. I started with a brush, but ended up painting with a palette knife. I was painting with a Monday morning plein air group. Outdoor situations make you paint fast and deliberate. I probably need to get out of the studio and paint outdoors more in 2015. This painting is for sale....contact Kay if you have comments or questions. Thanks for looking....Kay

Painting Jackson Square with Niki Gulley, New Orleans Art Trek 2014
SOLD • 5" x 7" palette knife oil painting ©2014 Niki Gulley
New Orleans Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Day 2: Jackson Square
On the second day of our New Orleans Art Trek, we set up our easels near Jackson Square to capture the architecture and energy of the city while the photographers went on to visit the downtown streets and infamous cemeteries. Some of my painters chose to record the whole street scene, while others focused in on interesting architectural details. I liked this tangled oak tree branch framing the coral wrought iron French Revival building behind it. Again, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day! On the way to our second painting location, we fueled up on Po Boy sandwiches and refreshments.

Thick oils, bold colors and lots of texture make this painting a cheery one. It would look great framed up or sitting on an easel. I like this size panel...it's not small, it's not big....it's just a great medium size format. Contact Kay if you would like to purchase...Thanks, and enjoy your Christmas Eve with friends and family. KMW

New Orleans Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Day 1: Fabourg Marigny
Later that afternoon, the light had changed so much on our morning subjects, that some of us had to switch gears and look for a different idea. I loved this tangled oak tree and with the golden light coming on, I set to capturing its vibrant colors before the glow was gone. That evening we went out for a delicious Creole dinner of oysters, jambalaya, shrimp and grits, and other New Orleans favorites while swapping stories from the day and getting to know each other better.

Occasionally there will be that day where the weather is just right, hasn't been raining in quite a while, sunshine out, puffy clouds passing over, and a nice set of waves rolling in and to your surprise the water is fantastic. Not that often but it does happen here in Galveston. I've seen it almost 2 foot of visibility in the water, not bad for such a shallow coast.

How to Brighten Reds and Yellows - Rainy Day Poppies - Flower Paintings by Nancy Medina
Rainy Day Poppies
by Nancy Medina
14X14
Oil
Rainy Day Poppies is a two-part approach to the flowers that will take center stage in my Tuscany, Italy, workshop in June - I'll be teaching there during the peak of poppy bloom season, and can hardly wait to see fields and fields of these reds - and after all those pink peonies these past few weeks, my brushes were begging for some warmer colors! I finished three small paintings yesterday - 14X14 size each, and today I brightened the clouds a bit on Rainy Day Poppies by adding Brilliant Yellow by Richeson (Shiva Series). I do love that stuff. If you want to brighten a red, yellow or orange, add brilliant yellow (or naples yellow light) instead of white. Remember, white dulls and grays - white is the color killer. There are much better options for brightening those expensive cadmiums. You can learn more about this approach to achieving your brightest, most exciting colors in my painting workshops.

New Orleans Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
"Dappled Light," New Orleans ©2014 Niki Gulley • 9" x 12" oil painting
New Orleans Art Trek with Niki Gulley and Scott Williams
Day 1: Fabourg Marigny
On the first day or our New Orleans Art Trek, I took the painters to the far end of the French Quarter to capture some of the beautiful architecture and wrought iron balconies so typical of the city while Scott led the photographers throughout the Quarter looking for the perfect shot. We couldn't have asked for a better day. The weather was a perfect sunny 70 degrees with barely a breeze – ideal painting conditions! We breaked for lunch on delicious crab cakes, salads and sandwiches and returned that afternoon to our morning location to finish our work.
