Here's another painting in the colorful wildflower series that I am currently working on.  I pulled some colors that I normally don't use, and mixed several new combinations.  The canvas size is a change-up from my favorite format:  the square.  I have a beautiful silver frame to put on this painting...it will be ready for a new home soon!  Contact Kay Wyne for more information.  Thanks for looking....Kay

Forever

Forever
18" x 18" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Floral Landscape
This painting is drying at the studio, as I finished it yesterday.  I have worked on this painting quite a long time---many sessions in the studio.  I wanted the eye to see forever...with the background disappearing.  I hope that the viewer feels like he or she is standing at the base of the wildflower field, enjoying the beautiful colors and fresh air.  Contact Kay for more information on this painting or any other pieces posted on this blog.  Thanks, Kay

I was browsing through my files yesterday, and found the photograph I took of the floral arrangement that I used for reference on this painting.  I decided that I needed to paint it again, but with a softer color palette.  I believe that this painting lives in Memphis, TN.  More painting in the studio today....Kay

Springtime Colors

Springtime Colors
22" x 28" Oil on Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
This contemporary floral landscape is completed and signed!  The thick layers of paint will take a long time to dry...so it will be sitting in the studio for now.  I am going to frame it up in a dark wood moulding, so that the colors will pop!  The field of poppies flows into the background of the field...fading away into the horizon line.
This is a close-up shot of the knife work.  I did not use a brush, only a knife to apply the oils.    Thanks for looking at this blog and the art posted here.  Contact Kay for info on this painting.  Thanks, Kay

On My Easel....

On my easel....Yesterday's painting...
22" x 28" Oil on Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
I may add some more detail to the wildflowers in the foreground, and more hints of flowers trailing back into the background.  I really enjoyed painting this one, using one palette knife with thick paint and impasto.  Mixing colors and playing with the combinations allows me to be creative and experiment.  I hope to put the finishing touches on it today, sign and frame....look here tomorrow!  Thanks for viewing, Kay

Sundown

Sundown
24" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Wildflower Landscape Painting

Still sitting on my easel, this one needs time to dry.  I loved the size of the canvas...and I am glad that I painted it vertically.  The sides of the canvas are painted, so framing is optional.  If you like a clean, contemporary look I think it looks great without a frame.  

I pulled out some new colors for the sky....mixing, mixing, and more mixing so that I had plenty of piles of turqoise, transparent orange, purpley/blues, greys and greens.  My under painting was a transparent red and orange, and then I layered mixtures of unltramarine blue, diox purple, cobalt, white and grey for the wildflowers.  This painting took all week to paint because I did not want to create mud with the paint, so layers needed to set-up so I could go back into the colors without creating a big mess.

Inspiration for this painting were photos of the hill country taken on a trip last spring...fields of color went on and on....and I wanted these flowers to fade into the horizon, and the sky to have a red hot flaming feel to it.  Thanks for looking at this blog....contact Kay with any questions or comments.  Have an artful day!  Kay

Untitled Floral Landscape

Untitled - needs a name!
18" x 18" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Wildflower Painting
This painting is one of the wildflower landscape series that I am working on.  I think I am finished...I will let it sit in the studio for the next couple of days and over time decide if I need to put some more paint on it.  I mixed my colors on my palette before I started painting...I knew I needed five or six mixtures of purpley-blues.  If you have a good suggestion for a name for this painting, please let me know.  Let Kay know your suggestion.  Thanks for looking at this blog...Kay

Courageous

Courageous
30" x 40" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Abstract Painting
Courageous is a contemporary abstract painting with bold colors.  I started with a titan buff background so that the ochre, scarlet and the blues would bounce off of each other.  The wide brushstrokes give the canvas movement, energy and boldness.  I was careful not to create muddy colors...something that is so easy to do when painting in oils.  This painting was painted horizontally, but as we have experimented in the studio, it can hang vertically.  Contact Kay for more information on this painting.  Thanks, Kay
