Snake River Abstract Horse Painting by A Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Snake River Abstract Horse Painting  This piece was painted in January of 2008. It was SOLD then and the owner that has it needs to sell it for family needs right now. She just contacted me. It is an older piece but it has the beginnings of my edge into the more abstract.  It followed a trip to Jackson Hole and seeing the Snake River and all the buffalo and wild horses.   If you are interested in this painting, email Brenda here to purchase it. 24 x 36 inches Oil on Canvas      ©Laurie Pace    Graphics One Design 1998-2011   Contact me for your own commissioned painting: Laurie        The Guiding Light Have you ever watched the clouds racing across the sky at different times of the day?  Morning clouds seem to scurry lightly as the sun breaks through.

I find more and more as I grow older my "want to" exceeds the ability of my "can do". While this should be a partnership there are frustrating moments as in any relationship. Considering things further, each of our "beings" is in partnership with our families, our communities and the world.  Even further we are all in partnership with the universe. Working together in partnership it actually starts with your spiritual being. Praising the body that was created by

My husband tells me a savvy marksman does not waste ammunition... he waits for the right shot. It is for the maximum effect... to wait and strike when the time is right. Many of us get up in the morning with our brains on overdrive for the day and a list of things to accomplish. Despite our well laid intentions, we never hit the mark one hundred percent.  We are pushing our limits and not hitting the mark. Wait upon the Lord. You are far more important to Him to use up your talents and time wastefully running in circles.  You literally make too much work for yourself when you d

The next layers of paint form up a strong horse in this equine art painting by A Texas Artist Laurie Pace        ©Laurie Pace    Graphics One Design 1998-2011   Contact me for your own commissioned painting: Laurie      Growing Pains Many people do not follow God. Is it commitment issues? Are they worried that God will expect more of them than they can give? Roses and flowers He created for our joy. God does ask for obedience. Why? Obedience actually frees you from responsibilities to enjoy His blessings. His blessings include peace, joy, and a fulfilled life. His blessings are seen in the world around us in His creative powers and in those that follow Him. He does not always answer those desperate last minute pleas when you need something fixed.  He does more than rigging short term fixes.  He wants to 'grow you' into His grace and love so that you can find His simple abundance.

The Beginning Of An Equine Painting by A Texas Artist Laurie Pace

The Beginnings of an Equine Painting This is the first step of a new painting. 30 x 40 is the canvas size I am working with. The first thing I do is come up with the theme or reason for the painting other than playing in paint. I chose to paint about all the horses involved with the Lone Ranger. His first horse was Dusty. Dusty was replaced by Silver, a beautiful white horse he saved from an attacking buffalo.   Pre-Sketch for Pace equine Painting Tonto road a horse named White Fellar in the beginning, so he was actually on a white horse while the Lone Ranger road Dusty a Chestnut mare.  After Tonto gave a Chief friend White Feller, the Chief gave him a Paint Pony.  I could not find a name for this one, but the final Paint Pony Tonto rode was Scout.  The Lone Ranger had let Silver go to run free and Silver returned with Scout.  Now you have the full outlay of the horses  Home Work of the Lone Ranger and from this I  Now you have the full s

Some of you know that my summer and early fall has been challenging for both Terry and I, as I experienced a chronic health issue flaring up that literally leaves me tired, unable to do much and eventually depressed. While I was wading through this flare up at the same time I continued to pray for so many others battling cancer, back problems requiring surgery, colon issues,  pneumonia, and even death. Illness surround us in this life. When we fall ill and weakness takes over, we have to remember that the illness does not rob us of our spiritual strength, only our physical strength. There is

Pear Painting Kitchen Art by A Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Pear Fun Okay, I played around with this one and loved it. I may do more because it was so free to paint it. First I put a layer of color on the canvas, then drew with a brush and India Ink.  After that I worked in the oil paint and touched up a bit of the ink. Mixed Media I guess!

What are the good things in life? Popcorn at the movies? A good book and a glass of wine? A 25% raise in salary? A clean bill of health? Money back from the IRS? What about the leaks under the slab... or a broken lawn mower? Or what about that bad cold last month? It is so easy to believe the 'good things' in life are from God and to be delighted when they come our way. It is easy to pray and give thanks to Him for those 'good things.'
