GIRL and GOATS

18 x 27 inches
Oil on Canvas

A Painting A Day

Last year I had a small series of Girl and Goat which was hugely received and the four I painted in the series did well in sales. I was sketching in bed the other night and decided to do one more with several goats and not just one. In the original series this same little girl is dressed as she is here and she has one black goat...her best friend. But I had the vision of her walking through the field with MANY goats...resulting in this precious piece. It is painted with a wide brush and thick Holbein Duo Oils.

Today it is early. Seems like I just did yesterday's blog and I did just do it at seven last night and it is almost five right now in the morning. Kay T make sure if you are reading this you read last night's for the email exchange question.

Today I will be working on several new compositions of horses and cows. So I am off to the canvas. I wanted to play the harp this morning, but decided my eyes were not ready to focus yet! Painting is easier to do at this hour.

Stay warm Sue. BRRRR...it was 72 degrees here yesterday! but getting cold again tonight. Back in the 30-40....

Grace,
Laurie

Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...

Arrival...Refrigerator?

© Laurie Pace Graphics One Design 2024 Arrival Oil on Canvas SOLD by Laurie Pace Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whtever you do, and he will establish your plans." Worrisome times laced with prayers. The world seems like a scary place lately. Praying for everyone affected by the last two hurricanes. My adventures today were the result of a dead refrigerator. I have loved my Kitchen Aid refrigerator very much. The first one in the 'French Kitchen' look died at 13 months. Hubby wanted the same refrigerator. Well this one made it four years and a few months. I cannot believe appliances are not made to last longer...but wait, is that because they make more money if we have to replace it in 4-5 years? You replace your mattress at least every 7 years... and your washer dryer, you might get 7 years out of those... The stoves seem to make it closer to 10 years. We are Lowe's customers, and Robert ...
