I have chosen two pictures from the website of Frank Gonzales that showcase his bird and landscape paintings. In the bird paintings, he combines graphics with paint, often including thin washes of paint. The landscape paintins are simple yet contian a variety of different color hues that work to present a certain spatial qualities such as depth.

That particular work by Gonzales reminds me of the drawing hanging over my right shoulder as I type this - its titled "Molting" and it is by Sara Dankert. They both posture similar subject matter next to graphics and blocks of painterly marks. You can see her work here: http://www.saradankert.com/Home.html
