Colors of the Day

Colors of the Day
6" x 6" Oil on Panel
I wanted to capture the colors of the tulips at the studio since they seem to be changing daily.  My time was short, and I needed to paint fast.  Painting from life is so much fun!
Colors of the Day is available for purchase.  Thanks for looking......Kay

Contemporary Floral Still Life
Here's a small painting that I did in a workshop several years ago...I enjoyed the three day workshop put on by Dreama Tolle Perry - this is one of the paintings that I came away with.  I framed it and it now hangs in a beautiful frame in my kitchen.  Thanks for looking at my blog...Kay Wyne

Flower Power by Kay Wyne

Flower Power
36" x 36" Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas
Contemporary Floral Painting
Finished!  This painting is drying in the studio...once I started this painting, I could not stop.  After visiting the Dallas Arboretum this week, I was so impressed and inspired with the vibrant colors of the tulips, that I could not resist painting them.  I decided that I needed to tone my canvas with a diluted Permanent Rose, then I was ready to start drawing on the canvas.  I used raw umber, olive green and violet to place the flowers and lay-out my road map.

I started with my transparent oils and put a couple of layers on, getting my dioxazine violet,  magenta, olive green, and permanent rose.  The background fades and is somewhat out of focus to create some distance on the canvas.  I mixed up about six different piles of greens, starting with sap, olive, and adding cad yellow and ice blue to get a good range of shades.  I put in the jonquils last because they were opaque, and I did not want to mix my transparent and opaques.  I hope that the viewer has a sense of the beauty and powerful color that I witnessed at the Arboretum.

Thanks for looking at this blog...contact Kay Wyne for more information on this painting - it is available for purchase.  Kay

Joyful Day

Joyful Day is a painting inspired by the tulips at the Dallas Arboretum. The tulips were out in full bloom during Dallas Blooms this spring. This 24" x 20" palette knife painting is on linen.
Last weekend John and I went to the Texas Hill Country and there were some amazing fields of flowers.....
Inspiring landscapes were everywhere!
Beautiful colors in this poppy field!
Brilliant fields of color!
Thanks for viewing.....have an artful day.
