© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 TWO PAIR is FOUR PEAR Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Blue Texas Skies . We closed out the All Star Season with our grandson this weekend and enjoyed each game with him. He has improved much over the past few weeks with some private coach training.  The painting... I loved the name, Two Pair is Four Pear . I went through a pear stage and even painted pears for the dining room... large and long fill of silver and gray and soft green pears with lush golds and caramel often with shades of blue.  Ephesians 5:25 "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her."  Married to someone I met at age 11, and he was 13... we have had many years of friendship and marriage.  This was another rough weekend with baseball, home chores and other family needs. I am very thankful for every day we have together left in this journey o...

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Native Herd Sunrise Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Can you count them?  Pretty sure there are seven horses on this horizon. I usually work in odd numbers.  This painting sold from one of my galleries up in Park City, Utah.  I think it was painted in 2015 maybe?   When they leave for Galleries, I am not always good about marking the calendar!  What would you want on the horizon for a pack of horses? 1 Corinthians 16:13 "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong." Be strong and of great courage as Paul wrote  in his letter to church followers. It is the weekend ahead... and I would also say be on guard yet always stand firm in the Lord and your faith. He will provide exactly what you need.  A good friend told me you have to be strong and get outside of your comfort zone. As an artist, this is true. I have t...

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Horse 10 Midnight  Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   The beauty of purples and blues sauced with a touch of red maroon, this small horse painting draws me in by the colors I pulled together with my palette knife. For me the salt and pepper that is used on food enhancing certain flavors... but I do not use salt and pepper! I love the taste of naked food with out the spices in most things. My hubby had to learn to adjust! This particular painting would be a strong super big vertical painting with a super large palette knife and lots of purple! 1 Samuel 2:6-7  “The LORD brings death and makes alive; he brings down to the grave and raises up.  The LORD sends poverty and wealth; he humbles and he exalts.   We are reminded through Samuel's words of God's sovereignty  and control over our lives. He is and always will be the ultimate authority to humble us or to elevate ...

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Horse 6- Lightning 2015 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Another small Horse painting,   thickly applied paint by palette knife makes this horse painting rock. As my knife goes into action with all the colors, it totally makes my heart sing. I should be doing that right now!!! Need to clean house... I only managed yesterday afternoon to cook for us and the dog!  Not sure about today. Spending time with Hubby outside this morning early, pinching off zinnia seeds and he was working on planting more of these seeds for additional flowers blooming.  Matthew 6:21 "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." My treasure is the love of God first and realizing all He provides us in this lifetime journey on this earth.  You truly must go through trials to appreciate His deep love and comfort, His patience and His glory, and the gifts given to you...

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 If You Go I Will Follow You     Horse 4 2014  Laurie Pace   Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Horse 4 from 2014...   I decided to skip around the years. Thinking I should maybe do some small paintings and put them up for sale like I did with these years ago. Maybe I can do that after all!   This is one of my wild things and it truly makes this artist smile ear to ear!!!  Acts 3:6 "Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” Several of my readings this morning had to do with giving of all you have in talent, in possessions, in teaching, in touching and reaching out to others... that my friends is serving our Lord with those talents, possessions, and prayers. All we do should be in God's name and for His Glory. There is much in my mind this morning...

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Summer Horse 22 (2012) 8 x 10 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Summer Horse 22... love the blue almost periwinkle background and the slicing in of browns and oranges on the pony's body... bring it tightly together. The splash of sunlight takes you eye out of the painting.  There were small piece and so much fun to get up every morning and post the painting from the day before.  Psalm 103:11  "For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His love for those who fear Him."  Typical Summer weather has hit north Texas.  We had massive rains for the last four weeks and really nothing moving in this week but the full blast of Summer. The temp will be 91-94 but the feels like will be well over 100.  Terry will begin watering the trees with a probe. He has his hands full trying to work on beds in the heat outside. I will be doing the 10...
