Floral....Sold

This contemporary floral is sold. It is a 24" x 24" oil on gallery wrap canvas. My inspiration for this painting was a beautiful floral arrangement that was sent to my daughter, Lindsay.

Rise Above

Rise Above
This is a donation for Alley's House annual fundraiser. It is a contemporary abstract on a 24" x 24" gallery wrap canvas. I used thick, juicy oils and applied them with wide brushes and palette knives. It is always good to give to good causes, and I hope that this one brings in some money for Alley's House and that this painting gets a new home!

Dancing Clouds

Dancing Clouds
48" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
This painting is finished, signed and drying at the studio. I used some new colors, hoping that the mix of turquoise, cobalt would contrast with the yellows, ochres and oranges. The trees and falling leaves have lots of texture. This painting may be going on a trip....it needs a new home. Please contact me if you are interested in this painting or any of my art that you see on this blog.

You Are My Sunshine

You Are My Sunshine
24" x 12" Oil on Canvas
This painting was shipped to Colorado yesterday. It would like really nice with a pewter/plein air moulding. I tried framing it in a black moulding and it was too much. Too much contrast between the painting and the frame. I used a different color palette on this painting...much more yellows and greens than normal. Thanks for looking at this blog. Kay

Unpredictable


Unpredictable
Oil on 18" x 18" x 2.5" Gallery Wrap Canvas
This contemporary abstract has evolved...it started out as a piece for my dragonfly series, but the dragonfly got lost in the color, lines and texture. I used the palette knife, several different brushes and oil pastel sticks on the heavy duty canvas. The piece is titled, "Unpredictable" because I had a plan when I started this painting, but I made some unpredictable moves on the canvas. Thanks for viewing.....Kay at 214-532-0325 or kay@kwyne.com.

Spirit of the Race

Spirit of the Race
30" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Spirited Horse Painting
This painting was inspired by a photograph that I took at the Lone Star Race Track in Grand Prairie, Texas. It was a very warm and sunny day, and all of the jockeys in colorful jerseys really caught my eye. There were seven horses out of the gate on this race, but I decided to focus on two horses for this painting. I had the starting gates painted in, but decided that the background needed to leave more to the imagination of the viewer's eye. I did not want to give away too much information. So, I focused on the horses and the energy on the track. I used wide brushes, oil pastels sticks and the palette knife.
Close-up. This painting is too wet to move off the easel. I will take a better photograph of it in natural light once it dries. Thanks for looking at my art.....Kay at 214-532-0325

Bubba In A Tub - SOLD!

"Bubba In A Tub" is getting ready to move.....this contemporary cow was sold to a collector in Iowa. Thank you, Brian!!! I am thrilled that Bubba has a new home and will ship him out today. I have been busy taking inventory and working on the dreaded books for 2011. Paperwork, bookkeeping and records are challenging for me....my least favorite thing about being an artist. Thanks for viewing...I hope to finish up a painting today that has been on the easel for a week....I am real excited about it. Kay
