Koi Pond by Kay Wyne

Koi Pond

24" x 30"

Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas

This is my first koi painting...I layered and layered the paint on, and had the gold/orange koi way too light. I was happy with the colors in the white/gray koi, but not the golden ones. I enjoyed the first day on this painting, and struggled with the days following. I know the water in the koi pond needs to be greener, but I don't like painting green very well, so I just went with what I wanted on the water. I hope to get some better reference photographs next trip to the Dallas Arboretum....I am in the studio all day today, hoping that my brushes are kind to me. Thanks for viewing this blog!

Arboretum Koi-SOLD!

This painting was sold last Saturday at the artists' reception for the opening at The Wine Therapist. Thanks to all the people who attended. We had a very good turn-out. A very cute couple (Kevin and Colleen) purchased this contemporary oil painting.

I need to look forward and plan for our next exhibit at The Texas Discovery Garden at Fair Park. We will be exhibiting at the Discovery Gardens during the great Texas State Fair 2010. So with that upcoming show and a couple of commissions, I have plenty of painting ahead of me. Have an artful day!!!

I hope to get some better reference photographs when the sun comes out and it warms up in Dallas. More koi paintings in the future. Today I will hit the studio with some new blank canvas....hoping that my brushes are kind to me. Have a good Monday! Thanks for viewing this blog!

This painting is probably going to be at the Arboretum Garden Gallery. It was my second koi painting, and I was very nervous about the green. Since I tend to "over-paint" on green, I was very careful not to get green paint on the fish. The water at the Koi Pond in the Arboretum was very green, even though my eye wanted to paint blue.
