    My current method of painting Colorado landscapes is to use palette knives and thick layers of impasto. It is through the use of palette knives and thick layers of paint that I am able to create a 3-dimensional effect that captures the beauty and texture of the Colorado landscape.

    Painting poppy flowers on canvas with a palette knife and thick layers of impasto

    With a palette knife and thick layers of impasto, I paint Colorado landscapes or flowers. As of right now, I'm working with them like this. The layers of paint and palette knives give my paintings a 3-dimensional look. Using colors, textures, and shapes, I build up my paintings to create a unique 3-D effect.

    A palette knife is used to cut the aspen trees (Aspen Trees)

    Mixed-media painting on canvas of autumn birch trees with yellow, orange, and red leaves. The autumn colors of birch and aspen tree trunks and leaves are my favorite subjects to paint with a palette knife. A thick texture and an impressionistic style. Aspen or birch tree branch in the Fall Fantasy by OLena Art Original art aspen or birch tree branch original artwork. Signed on the back. Wired canvas wall art is ready to hang in your home or office. Black sides and staple-free. Protective varnish has been applied as a final step. The colors are black, white, green, red, orange, yellow. It is the white-skinned and wild aspen forests of Colorado that inspire me. I also enjoy painting in oils with palette knives, mainly landscapes, but also still lifes and wildlife

    In the forest in Arizona, I painted my horse with a palette knife in oils en plein air.

    In the forest in Arizona, I painted my horse with a palette knife in oils en plein air.

    By creating thick, textured brushstrokes with the palette knife, I captured the rustling of the trees in the background and the texture of my horse's mane.

    My customer has now purchased this painting and it is now hanging in their living room

    Now hanging on a collector's wall. White trees are depicted in thick layers of impasto oil paint. Canvas painting with oil paints. Canvas sides are black, so no frame is needed. It is unframed and wired, so it can be hung immediately. Its impasto technique adds texture and dimension to the artwork, making it visually stunning. Colors are vibrant and long-lasting with oil paints.

    The Scarlet Sails were painted in oils with a palette knife for Danielle

    The Scarlet Sails were painted in oils with a palette knife for Danielle

    This is a portrait of Danielle, based on the adventure novel "Scarlet Sails" written by Alexander Grin, which I used on the certificate I signed for you, but you can call it anything you like. You can find translation of the story here: His novella Scarlet Sails, first published in 1923, is very popular in Russia. It's lyrical, romantic, and almost magical. Alexander Grin was a writer who specialized in romantic short stories when the Petrograd Revolution hit in 1917. After serving in the Red Army for a short period of time, he returned to the city, where he met a young woman named Nina. Alexander was so taken by her that he wrote perhaps his best known novel with a young woman like her as the main character, "Alye Parusa," or "The Scarlet Sails." In 1923, this beautiful fairy tale took place in a fictional land where Longren, a sailor, went to work making toys while caring for Assol, his young daughter, after the premature death of his wife. In the forest, the young woman chased a toy boat, one she was supposed to sell, where she met an old man named Aigle, who claimed he was a great wizard. His prediction was that she would be taken away to a faraway land on a ship with scarlet sails by a prince someday. Although she was teased for believing the old man afterward, she believed him nonetheless. Eventually, a ship captain (with the English name of Arthur Grey) came along and fell in love with her, and when he learned of the prediction, he decked his ship with scarlet sails and swept her off her feet.

    I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart! From the beautiful state of Colorado! Regarding the piece you just sent. Thank you for sending it. It is in perfect condition. Once again, thank you very much. Thanks also for the beautiful print of "Sunflowers". That painting is my favorite, so having a high-quality print of it is a real treat for me. You are very talented, and I find it difficult to resist your paintings, so I will wait until the next art purchase, which may be very soon. With warm regards.

    Mountain Living Studio presents new works from the OLena Art collection.

    Mountain Living Studio presents new works from the OLena Art collection.

    A collection of oil paintings hangs on the gallery wall. My technique for painting layers was to use a palette knife and thick layers of paint. The use of a palette knife and thick layers adds texture and depth to the paintings. This makes the paintings more dynamic and visually appealing, as the different layers and textures catch the light in different ways.

    Sunflower Field painting in progress by OLena Art

    Sunflower Field painting in progress by OLena Art

    With a palette knife. It's not finished, but worth sharing. Sunflowers are her favorite subject! Her palette knife creates thick impasto paint layers that bring the painting to life. As a result, the sunflower field is beautifully captured with vibrant colors and striking textures. In this painting, the impasto technique gives the sunflower petals a feeling of depth, creating a feeling of being in the field. Sunflower Field painting in progress by OLena Art
