"Rhode Island Sail" by Karla Nolan, framed painting on glass



ALERT: You are about to view art of a different nature. These are paintings on glass -- that is, painted directly onto glass with specially formulated glass paints. They are always framed for the protection of the glass. The paints often are transparent and sometimes opaque, giving a stained glass appearance under good light. They, like all fine art, should not be hung in direct sunlight. The photographs do not do them justice -- my colors are very vibrant. Close ups are available, just e-mail me for information (see below). In most instances, click on the actual image for an even larger image to view -- you'll see lots of different items such as marbelization, transparent or opaque parts of the work -- try it and see! Commissions are accepted.
Egads, she's back to the paintings on glass!  Indeed, I am!  It's been a bit since I've had the opportunity to paint onto glass, but I'm happy to have returned to it.  Travel, family, other considerations have taken over my glass painting activities, but now that I have yet another new blogspot and website highlighting my paintings on glass (which I hope you will view!), I'm going to try and work out a palette knife oil painting schedule that is compatible with the glass painting schedule.  What can I say, wish me luck!  There are definite pros and cons to my paintings on glass --they are a different type of art, not completely appreciable on a computer monitor -- best in person, naturally!  However, bear with me, please, as I try very hard to produce high quality photographs of what I paint.  (First photo is full painting, second, close up)



"Rhode Island Sail", 9"x12" measured edge to edge glass, framed in black, $325 includes s/h in N. America, Paypal accepted, write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for further information


I have also set up a second website, Paintings On Glass, to showcase my paintings on glass.  There is a piece in progress as I type with sailboats.  That's a true challenge, showing proper structure and making the water look good.  Be sure to check it out, along with my new blogspot, listed below.

Thanks for looking!

"Atmospheric Winds" by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting miniature on panel

A sweet little abstract painting here -- with a short explanation!  Years ago I worked at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulderl, Colorado.  The atmospheric scientists there tended to hang out on occasion in the "map room" where odometers and other graphs reigned supreme.  They were completely taken with the climate, meteorology, atmosphere -- every once in a while a great Chinook wind would pound Boulder, often with wind gusts over 100 mph!  Mama Nature ruled, man!  This is an ode to that era of my life.

By the way:  you may know by now that I've applied new pricing to my oil paintings, as most are not in galleries.  This one is for sale at $36 which includes s/h in North America. It's a 4"x6" miniature palette knife painting on linen panel.  Just write me, I'll send you a Paypal invoice, and we'll got from there -- or feel free to write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information.  Thanks so much for looking!
I have also set up a second website, www.PaintingsOnGlass.com, to showcase my paintings on glass.  There is a piece in progress as I type with sailboats.  That's a true challenge, showing proper structure and making the water look good.  Be sure to check it out, along with my new blogspot, listed below.

"Sailing at Dusk" by Karla Nolan, palette knife miniature oil painting on linen panel

Busy, busy, busy!  I have been so, so busy!  It's been fun, though, painting miniatures onto linen panels.  It's challenging to provide any detail in such a tiny space!  Obviously my influence has been our recent trip back East -- there's not much in the way of ocean in Colorado!  We do have reservoirs, rivers, streams, lakes and so on, but somehow the Rhode Island trip seems to have been a bit of a kick in the pants for me regrading boats and water.  I hope you are enjoying it as much as I hate.  (More coming!)
I have also set up yet another website, www.PaintingsOnGlass.com, to showcase my paintings on glass.  There is a piece in progress as I type with sailboats.  That's a true challenge, showing proper structure and making the water look good.  Be sure to check it out, along with my new blogspot, listed below.

"Moon Over Ocean" by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting miniature on linen panel

Being the landlocked Colorado chickie that I am, I must tell you how much I appreciate the moon and its reflection over the ocean.  It's a rare sight for me, as we only get to either Coast about once a year and that's not always near a beach!  So...with stars sparkling in the skies, the moon aglow -- what can I say?  Here we go!  (Oh, that is SO blasted corny, but I could not resist.)

"A Billowy Sail" by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting on linen panel



Having just returned from Newport, Rhode Island, with even more inspiration than the usual, I present to you a fun little miniature painting of three sailboats with their colorful jibs exposed, dancing in the breeze.  Honestly, I am not a sailor of any sort -- I tend to get seasick!  But I sure enjoyed watching the sailboats out in the water for one of the last weekends of the year -- and took a great number of photo references from which to work.  It was a difficult painting session, however, as the canvas was so small -- but I think it was successful.  


 You may know by now that I've applied new pricing to my oil paintings, as most are not in galleries.  This one is for sale at $36 which includes s/h in North America. It's a 4"x6" miniature palette knife painting on linen panel.  Just write me, I'll send you a Paypal invoice, and we'll got from there -- or feel free to write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information.  Thanks so much for looking!

"As the Sun Slips Behind the Ocean" by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting on linen panel


If you've been following this art blog at all, I'm sure that you're well aware that we were recently visiting friends and relatives on the East Coast -- remember, we are usually landlocked in colorful Colorado -- Rhode Island and Pennsylvania were our temporary homes! 


You probably also know that I cannot resist a sunset -- and especially one slipping away behind the Atlantic Ocean!  So...here you go...just for you -- I sure hope you enjoy the colors of the sky, the hint of the last bit of sun, and a few sparkles on the water.

I've applied new pricing to my oil paintings, as most are not in galleries.  This one is an absolute steal at $100 , 8"x10" palette knife painting on linen panel, which includes s/h in North America.  Just write me, I'll send you a Paypal invoice, and we'll got from there -- or feel free to write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information.  Thanks so much for looking!

"Rhode Island Surf" by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting on linen panel


(This painting has just SOLD.)  Ah, Rhode Island!  The tiniest little state in this great country and probably one of the most enchanting states.  We've had friends in Newport and Middletown for years, since college days, and it's always a great treat to see them -- and eat as much fresh seafood as possible, listen to the pounding surf, watching the sailboats go by.  A great time, had by all!

I, like everyone else, have been hit hard by the economic times and have been considering the following decision for a while now.  Since almost no galleries who represent me carry my oil paintings, I have determined that I will discount the cost of my oil paintings carried by Daily Painters and other such art blogs -- the list below indicates sizes and costs which I will institute, starting with this painting.  Any paintings 11"x14" and under in size will be shipped without additional shipping and handling charges in North America; over 11"x14" will have an added fee, determined at the time of sale.  I hope this helps you collect worthy art as I don't feel it is fair to not provide reasonable costs and stop artists and collectors from connecting with one another, even during trying financial times.  As always, Paypal is preferred and I can send an invoice.  

4"x6" painting -- $36.00
5"x7" painting --$52.50
8"x10" painting -- $100.00
9"x12" painting -- $135.00
11"x14" painting -- $175.00

shipping/handling applied in addition to costs for below sizes
12"x16" painting -- $215.00
14"x18" painting -- $285.00
16"x20" painting -- $360.00

Larger painting prices to be determined!  Please note, all of these artworks
are sold UNFRAMED.

I hope you appreciate my new oil painting policy.  Please let me know if you have comments or questions at KarlaNolan@gmail.com.  This also applies to the paintings that are not yet sold found on my website (listed below).  Thanks for looking!

"Pocono Leaves" , 4"x6" palette knife oil painting on linen panel, includes shipping/handling in N. America, Paypal preferred, please write me for information; I'll send an invoice; thanks for looking!!!!
