"Wyoming Spring Fields" by Karla Nolan, framed painting on glass

I obviously do not like Winter.  It is finally supposed to snow here in northern Colorado.  So what do I do?  Harken back to the Spring days in Wyoming, actually early Summer, when the fields were a phenomenal shade of green, iridescent, and the skies were a powdery light cerulean blue.  That's the weather I've been missing!  I'm afraid it'll be a few months more before we see that again!  Oh well....something to look forward to, I suppose.

"Wyoming Spring Fields, 11"x14" measured edge to edge glass, framed as shown, $450 includes s/h in U.S., s/h in other placed determined at time of sale, Paypal, I can send you an invoice if you write 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.

"California Bougainvillea" by Karla Nolan, framed glass painting

Ah, the lovely bougainvillea!  Almost as much fun to paint as the poppy is, I especially enjoy seeing it growing, climbing, clawing it way to the top of a building.  The finest bougainvillea I have seen was while in Vejer de la Frontera, Spain, one of "the most beautiful towns of Spain".  This hot pink one was climbing a stark white adobe house, with a few spent petals lying on the ground.  It was very memorable.  But while in Sonoma, California, a year ago, I saw one much like the paintings you see above (framed, top, and close up, bottom).

GREETINGS FROM COLORFUL FORT COLLINS, COLORADO, USA

"Springtime = Poppy Time" by Karla Nolan, framed painting on glass

 

For some strange reason I have springtime on my mind. Now it is almost winter, you know, although the official date is still several weeks off. It's been pretty cold here in Colorado but so far we haven't had much in the way of snow. Sometimes we get raging blizzards -- I expect that will occur in February or March possibly -- but even a light dusting of the white stuff makes me want spring to get here quickly. There's an old saying, "Earth laughs in flowers", a quotation I really like. The brown earth, the leafless trees -- these just don't do it for me. Deep down inside that brown earth the plants just rest and wait -- I don't rest very much, but I do wait and look forward to warmer weather when the jagged poppy leaves emerge with their succulent poppy buds just ready to burst open at the seams (they do look like seams!) and perform the annual miracle of the opening of the poppies. They can be Oriental Poppies, European Poppies, California Poppies, I don't care what kind or color (although red is my favorite), I'm just thrilled to see them return and pick up my spirits. They are the happiest of flowers and my very favorites to paint!

"Springtime = Poppy Time", 13"x20" measured edge to edge glass, framed in black as shown, $750 plus s/h determined at time of sale, Paypal invoice can be mailed to you, 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.

"Colorful Irises" by Karla Nolan, framed painting on glass

Irises tend to be very trying to paint, very difficult. The waviness of them, their curves, their shadows -- all a bit frustrating. And yet I enjoy attempting to capture them. Painting irises onto glass can be a little disconcerting because it is so easy to lose track of their lines -- they tend to merge together on occasion. Still, I enjoy the challenge. There is a close-up on my website.

"Colorful Irises", framed painting on glass, 10"x22" edge to edge glass, sold framed in black, Paypal preferred, $675 plus s/h to be determined at time of sale, e-mail me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com for more information

"Poppies in Abstract" 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.

A bit blurred, sort of dreamy, these poppies were more experimental than some I have painted.  They are painted directly onto the glass, naturally, and framed in simple black which I feel highlights the flowers and certainly does protect that glass!  Just sort of a small sweetness of a painting....

"Poppies in Abstract", 5"x7" measured edge to edge glass, framed as shown, $135 includes s/h in U.S., Paypal invoice sent to you if you e-mail me at KarlaNolan@gmail.com

Well, spring is a long way from today, isn't it?  We're supposed to get a dusting of snow, Thanksgiving is over, I've been ill but am healthier now -- so, I look forward to warmer weather when I can see the actual dew on the real morning glories, not just in my glass painting!  Patience is not my biggest virtue, I guess it's obvious, plus I'm not sure a "winter" person....

This painting just glows -- I'm very proud of it -- lots of transparency and glimmer here.  I recently sold a companion piece to it.  There are different hues of blues and the tangling of leaves.
