Anyway The Wind Blows by Kay Wyne

Anyway The Wind Blows
36" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Landscape
I love the colors in this landscape painting...they are bright and bold, crisp and whispy, as the tall grass blows in the wind.  This canvas can stand alone without a frame...it is ready to be hung!  Thanks for looking at this blog....Kay Wyne

Missed The Boat by Kay Wyne

Missed The Boat
12" x 12" Oil on RayMar Cotton Panel
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
The rusty old dingy is tied up to a rock on the shore.  The rocks were painted with a palette knife, so they are textural with the water washing up over them.  This painting is framed in a handsome dark mahogany moulding.  My inspiration for this painting was a dingy tied up in a small fishing village in Maine.  It caught my eye---and I had to paint it!  Thanks for looking at my blog.  Contact Kay for purchasing info.  KMW

Field of Color - Sold

Field of Color
Sold
30" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Floral Landscape
I was revisiting my paintings, and looking at Field of Color made me think back when I painted this landscape.  The process of painting on this canvas was so much fun.  I mixed piles and piles off oils, then started moving the paint on the canvas with a palette knife.  The colors flowed from the foreground to the background, and faded into the horizon.  I can't wait to start a large landscape with these colors.  I am currently working outside the studio, and I am missing my easel time!  Thanks for looking at my blog...Kay

I was revisiting some earlier paintings, and this one is one of my favorites.  It was my first nest painting, and I really enjoyed the process.  I loved the color palette that I used too.  This painting sold, but I did have notecards made with the image on the front of the cards.  Thanks for looking at this blog...I am painting away on the collaborative commission located at a local business in Dallas.  Kay

Sold

Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
There are some paintings that I get attached to, and Misty is one of them.  I enjoyed the whole process of painting it from start to finish, and wish that I had this one in my home.  I spent a lot of time mixing the colors before I started painting. The colors are harmonious giving the painting a pleasant and peaceful feel.  I am back in the studio today, working on some new works for an exhibit this summer.  Thanks for looking at my blog....Kay

On my easel...

On my easel today....an abstract!
The first two layers of paint are on and have covered
the white canvas.  My intent was to pick a color palette
and stick with it.  I want to keep the pinks, corals, greens, greys soft
and muted.  The greys are green grey and violet grey. The canvas
is a 30" x 40" gallery wrap.  I defined some of the shapes with a
pop of turquoise and lavender.  I will post the progress of this
 contemporary abstract...thanks, have a great day.  Kay

Blaze by Kay Wyne


Blaze
40" x 30" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Abstract Painting
It is finished!  I wish I had photos of the progression of this painting.  It has gone through lots of phases.  I worked with oil bars, tubes of oils, after starting with a base coat of turquoise in acrylic.  I used a wide brush throughout most of the painting, along with a palette knife and impasto to give the paint body and texture.
Here's a close-up.  
You can see the layers of color and the texture on the canvas.
I purposely signed the canvas on the sides --- 
as I could not decide if this painting
looked better horizontal or vertical.  So when this painting goes to a new home,
the owner can decide which way to hang.  
I am working on a couple of new abstracts in the studio, but they are in the beginning stages.  Thanks for looking at this blog.  Contact ME for purchasing information.  KMW

Timeless

Timeless
60" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Palette Knife Painting
Currently hanging at Dutch Art Gallery in Dallas, Texas.  This is a great size canvas if you have vaulted ceilings and lots of wall space.  The florals in this landscape fade into the the horizon.  I loved painting with this color palette, and mixed all the colors.  Nothings was straight out of a tube.  I am back in the studio today, working on a new project.  My time is being divided with an off-sight collaborative painting project and my two new little grandsons, Charlie and Oliver.  They are so much fun...here's a quick pic of them.
Thanks for looking at my blog....Have an artful day!  Kay
