Fiesta & Fruit

Fiesta & Fruit
20" x 24" Oil on Canvas
This is a still life that I painted outside...the set-up was in Don Sahli's yard at his Art School in Evergreen, Colorado.  Don set up several still life arrangements and because we were outside, the light and shadows changed the composition.  So I had to paint fast.  Contact Kay for more information on this painting or any of the art posted on this blog.  Thanks, Kay

Early Shadows

Early Shadows
20" x 24" Oil on Canvas
Plein Air Painting
This is a workshop painting that I did in Colorado this summer.  It was hard to catch the morning shadows and the light hitting this old barn.  The barn was situated next door to Don Sahli School of Art so I set my easel  up two days in the early morning.  It was amazing how the shadows moved over the barn.  It was a great exercise in looking, looking, looking and then putting the paint on the canvas and doing it quickly.  Thanks for looking at this blog....
Have an artful day!  KMW

Cottage Still Life

Cottage Still Life
20" x 24" Oil on Canvas
This painting is drying after painting it in Colorado at a Don Sahli workshop.  It was an interesting arrangement...and because of the subject matter, it reminded John and I of the cottage in Michigan.  I loved the enamel pitcher, fruit, antique platter and dish towel it felt like I was pulling things from the cottage for the still life.  The light was bouncing off the ceramic jar and the the fruit.  The oils will take a long time to dry, since I used very little medium with the oils.  Thanks for looking at the art posted here....contact Kay with any questions concerning my art.  Thanks, KMW

State Fair Rooster

State Fair Rooster
16" x 12" Oil on Gallery Wrap Linen
Textured Palette Knife Painting
This rooster is somewhat abstract with the
angles and shapes going on. 
I left the natural linen showing through, instead of
covering all of the linen surface.
I had been at the Texas State Fair one year
and photographed this rooster
in one of the barns.  He was darting around,
constantly moving.  
Contact Kay Wyne for purchasing information.
This painting does not require a frame.
Thanks, Kay

Sun Filled Day

Sun Filled Day
24" x 20" Oil on Canvas
This pic is for Beth, who is up in Colorado tackling this still life at Don Sahli's Art Studio. I can honestly say that it was a challenge, and because the still life is sitting in a window, I had to paint fast with the light changing constantly.  There were many stages that this painting went through, and here are a few:
 Drawing it out...getting the road map on the canvas.  Something that I need to spend more time doing...drawing.
As you can see my set-up, the light is coming through the window, hitting the still life....but it all changed so fast.  I had to paint it in at the same time everyday.
Here I am starting to fill in, drawing more and making more changes.
Starting to put some color on.  Getting the darkest darks in first.  I probably could of painted this on a larger canvas, but did not realize it until I was at this stage.  I wish that I had more fabric in my painting.    Looking back on this, I learned alot on this canvas. I enjoyed seeing others paint the same still life.
Thanks for looking at my blog....If you have any questions regarding my art, please email Kay Wyne.  Thanks, Kay

Peonies, Fruit & Fabric

Peonies, Fruit & Fabric
24" x 30" Oil on Canvas
This still life is signed and now drying at the studio.
There were several challenges in this painting for me...
putting in the shadows, the hi lights on the fruit, and nailing
down the colors.  I loved the fullness of the peonies 
and the large shadow that was cast in this still life.  


Here is a close up - you can see the juicy 
colors and brush strokes.
I used a #12 Filbert on most of the painting and
some new paints.  It is always fun to find
new materials to paint with.  Thanks for looking
at the art posted here.  Contact Kay Wyne for
purchasing information.  KMW

Cottage Rose Garden


Cottage Rose Garden

14 3/4" x 20 3/4"
Oil on Panel
This oil painting is framed in a beautiful gold frame.
The paint is applied with a palette knife and brush, 

so there is variety in the texture.
One of my favorite things about this painting is the rooftop, 

which has layers of oils built up using the palette knife.  
The roses in the foreground are also painted with thick paint.
I hope that this colorful landscape painting takes 

the viewer to a pleasant place....
maybe England...maybe a countryside cottage.

Red Dragonfly



Red Dragonfly

32" x 32" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
This is a piece that I started in the 
Laurie Pace Palette Knife Workshop 
at the Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, Texas.  
Laurie has a unique a approach to palette 
knife painting, and it was so much fun to 
watch her demo and then teach us.  This 
painting has layers and layers of
color.  I wanted this painting to be colorful, 
abstract and interesting.  
A special thanks to Mark Malone 
who gets credit for a photo of a 
beautiful red dragonfly that I used
as inspiration for this painting.  
I couldn't resist 
painting it after seeing it!
