"Ladybugs on Yucca Flowers", by Karla Nolan, palette knife, brush oil painting on linen panel

Okay, I'm going to toot my horn on this particular painting, as I am extremely proud of it.  I wanted to go a more simple route with lighter colors and still have an impact.  Painting a light wash in oil first, then gradually adding the buds and flowers of the yucca bush, and layering on several ladybugs did the trick for me.  I hope you like it as much as I do!  And....yes, it's a great price, a great deal!  So there!!!

"Ladybugs on Yucca Flowers", 10"x8""  palette knife and brush oil painting on linen panel, available at Wild Hands Art Gallery, Jackson, Wyoming (wildhands.com)

I have 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.

"Mesa Verde: Panaromic View", by Karla Nolan, palette knife, brush, oil painting on gessoed panel


Long a favorite place to visit, down in the southwestern corner of Colorado, Mesa Verde is almost hidden upon first approach.  It has cliff dwellings nestled into an opening which you can walk through, climb up ladders, peer down into kivas -- all sorts of interesting opportunities to explored the now defunct Anasazi civilization dwellings.  I'd highly recommend visiting there.  Possibly this is needless to say, but it certainly was a challenge to paint!

"Mesa Verde: Panaromic View", 11"x14"  palette knife and brush oil painting on gessoed panel, sold unframed, $195 plus s/h to be determined at time of sale; please write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information

I have 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.

"Solo Act: Red Indian Paintbrush", by Karla Nolan, palette knife, brush, oil painting on gessoed panel


I've been ill with a sinus infection this last week or so -- miserably ill.  I know, being sick is the body's way of saying "slow down" -- and I saw "whatever!"  That said, here is the gift to myself, a fun and favorite flower of mine to paint, the Indian paintbrush which grows wild in the West and Southwest parts of the U.S.  A big "cheer me up" to myself!

"Solo Act: Red Indian Paintbrush", 16"x12" palette knife and brush oil painting on gessoed panel, sold unframed, $215 plus s/h to be determined at time of sale; please write me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information

I have 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.

"Bryce Canyon Beckons", by Karla Nolan, palette knife oil painting

Years ago, we went to Utah to explore the terrain.  I took numerous reference photos, naturally, but somehow they never did get printed.  I tend to leave these on the computer, much like many others do.  My husband would refer to our journey there occasionally and I would say, yes, that I'd get some copies made of Bryce Canyon but never got around to it.  So, instead, I decided to paint a scene from Bryce for him as a gift -- and here it is.  If you haven't been to Utah, baby, you haven't lived!!!!!
"Bryce Canyon Beckons", 14"x11" palette knife and brush oil painting on stretched canvas -- not for sale -- unless you would like something similar, at which time you can let me know that by writing me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com!

I have 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.
