What is your intention today? © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2026 INTENT Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Trying to catch up. Little by little of course.  Enjoy the full story on my Website blog posted below. Intent? Every day we wake and rise, there is a full day and night ahead. Some people plan, others take the day as it comes.  I am a mixture of both.   I always need a direction if there are appts or things to be done. I am not so good at being still and trying to mend or get over something and the rash of 8 weeks has been an eye opener.   I am still sharing glances back with stories.  Enjoy your Memorial Weekend.  We will be celebrating our 35th wedding anniversary, but we have known each other since I was 11 and he was 13.   Beautiful years and so many memories.   Elle https://ellepace.com/blog-laurie-pace/intent-horse-0526      •  f aith...

The Tale (Tails?) of 100 hundred Horses for 100 days for $100 each. © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2026 HORSE 58 2012 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Each summer morning in 2011 and 2012, I would rise, make breakfast, clean up and hit the studio painting each day.  100 horses in 100 days for $100.  Really crazy as I could do one 48 x 48 painting and make the same amount!   I was crazy enough to do it for two years. But it was actually fun when I had the space and place to pull it off!   FOR the full story of this painting,  Visit my website blog to see read about these paintings and get all the details here .     Was it really fun? How did I manage things? This process was something that kept me painting and on the raw edge of creativity.  I wish I could do it now!  Hard to do using oils but they work better. Should I do it again?   Emai...

The Battle of the Sun in the well loved Painted Ponies by Artist Laurie Pace © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2026 Sunlight Play in the Meadow Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   We turn the pages back focusing on an unusual painted pony from my collection. It was completed in 2022 and sold from Mirada Fine Art in Denver. I am not a 'yellow' person at all. I use it for accent but rarely in this amount on any painting. Yellow, white and a light rich brown blend in the sky to the fields with green and brown and orange grass.  You can visually see the blue bridge start on the left side of the canvas  and pull across in strokes like a bridge or a mountain with pulls of blue through all the legs reaching the greens.   I am preparing in my heart and head for a possible show in North Carolina. I would like to enter my work and it be one of my painted ponies. I will be playing with a color palette be...

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2026 Backfield in Motion Painting in process  by Laurie Pace   Starts with words... then comes color moving through out the surface. Often it follows with stars or circles or lines weaving through out.  Then the charcoal finds the horses in the patterns.  You can read more about the story on my website Blog, Studio Stories. There is a story with every painting for sure. Read more here .   Thank you!      BTW... it is cold outside.  We have had tornadoes and hail, and now in May temperatures in the fifties outside. Normally May is 85-90, and June is more in the high 90s with July and August in the 100's.  Well, this is Texas weather  more unpredictable this year!   Elle   • self-interest vs selflessness  •  New Year Christian reflection   •  f aith and relationships  •  humility in relationships...

Counting Backwards? © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2026 Falling into Winter Herd Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Loving the Palette Knife and Addicted to Color The addiction to color is not limited to painting. It spreads to my clothing in my closet and my favorite rich colors through out our home.  This was triggered to look backwards when I saw a man created 5000 days of drawings etc and he ended up selling them for Millions. I look back to 2003 when I started painting daily and listing  paintings on ebay. by 2005 I was making over $100K a year.  I had fun with the paintings...and continued to list there selling paintings though early 2010.  Galleries from Jackson Hole to Denver picked my work up in  2008. I limited what I sold on ebay but continued because the bidding would usually exceed several thousand dollars.  Right place and right time! Going to clean out and sort one of my dressers...
