Wall art?

What is Wall Art? Our dilemma at Blue Skies Gallery is that we have so many types of art that hang on walls. There are painters in oil and acrylic based paints, watercolors, pastels and mixed media. The artist can choose to work with canvas, paper, linen, and/or board; art can be framed or unframed. Some Wall Art is painted, some drawn, and some is even beaten into sheets of metal, called repousse. We even have quilts that can be hung, these have put these in the Fiber Art category. We call all the rest Wall Art.

Within all of these choices of media there is a vast range of styles and images. Our artists choose their own ways of expressing themselves so you will find realistic and abstract work, landscapes, portraits and almost everything in between. This wide selection of Wall Art can compliment an enormous variety of homes and tastes.

Variety of Wall Art

Oil,
by Betty Ross

Oil based pigments provide both color and the ability to achieve a texture on the surface of the painting.

Acrylic,
by Vernon Walters

Acrylic based pigments provide both color and the ability to achieve a texture on the surface of the painting as does oil. However, acrylic drys quickly so the finished product is ready for display sooner.

Pastel,
by Susan Turner

Pastel chalks are dry media that applies in layers to produce subtle blens of colors.
