  • "Dreamlike Journey" Pastel from Venice by Contemporary Impressionist Niki Gulley

    27 days ago - By Daily Painters of Texas

    “Dreamlike Journey,” Venice, Italy ©2012 Niki Gulley12” x 9” pastel
    I created this pastel during a workshop my husband and I taught in Venice. We love the city, and there is so much inspiration there between the art, architecture, canals and magical light that it's really hard to narrow down what to paint! On this day, we decided to stick with a classic view of the canals. I like the way light peeks through the narrow passageway and leads your eye from building to building, and the gondola that happened into the scene created the perfect finishing detail.
