Time for shopping is running short. Terry and I took a few angels from the tree and have to finish that one up...we are almost done. I have one or two things to order yet off the Internet and then I will be done! OH yeah, have to pick up some Australian Port for my dad!

It was 75 here yesterday and will be over 80 today, this is criminal this late in the year. Hard for paintings to dry with the high humidity rates. We still have some trees to dig up and relocate on our patch of an acre...and need to finish cleaning out the front flower beds. SLOWLY I remind myself, SLOWLY. Charlene and I were talking about the KISS method...hubby says it means KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID...but in my classroom it always meant KEEP IT SIMPLE SWEETIE!!! I try to do that with my art and my life, but kids seem to keep mucking it up in my life!

The painting above is second in a series of winter white backgrounds with startling color on top. The chills of the cold seem to penetrate in the blues on white...THICK ridges of paint stand up on the surface with bold scrapes and runs of blues blending together.
Out of the snow... Winter White Horse One

I wish you joy today...that is also the thought with Daily Word, accepting the joy from Him and opening your arms to receive the feast he offer to us all. As an artist I would starve with out the enriching divine ideas flowing through me as the Holy Spirit strengthens my mind, body and spirit at the easel. There is joy in this strength knowing the Lord loves me and you.

Grace to you all...

Laurie



“My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast,
and my mouth praises you with
joyful lips.”
—Psalm 63:5

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

EXHAUSTED Woman Figurative Oil Painting, Art Deco Painting, Art Abstract Painting, Women in Kitchen Oil Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

'Exhausted' 24 x 24  Oil on Canvas Contact me to purchase by check or paypal. Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG  ON INSTAGRAM     @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace          “I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
