A Painting a Day
SOLD


Good morning. Short note today. IT IS MAC LESSON DAY! YEAH...but they only give me an hour. I have my list prepared for the genius behind the bar...they work with you one on one or you can take classes...as many as you want for only $99 a year....Terry and I will definitely get our money worth.

Terry is packing paintings while I am printing shipping labels. We are late a day in shipping because of his flight on the B17. It was fascinating to watch from the ground...he was up almost 40 minutes though and took some great video. I became ill watching the video...ya know how the camera is bouncing and rolling??? AND when he would have to let go of the camera to hang on as the plane would drop and bank and tilt....well, the camera would go wildly loose out of his hands swinging on the neck rope.... I thought I would never get by the rolling stomach yesterday and that was from watching the movie he shot. Don't think I will ever worry about flying on a B17. At least NOT in this lifetime.

YEAH to BETH at ATCWD or also to me known as WEBHOSTINGFORIDIOTS.com. Those folks are ABSOLUTELY the best I have ever EVER worked with. Not only do you get competitive pricing for server, but the best Customer Service you could imagine. I have referred many folks to them and they all are smiling as well. I have two sites through webhostingforidiots.com....also branched off as ATCWD ...and one would not work because I had deleted something from the files where I am NOT suppose to go. This is the second time I have managed this in three years...not too bad. But Beth fixed it and surprise for me this morning, thepaintedpony.net WORKS!!!! I have had this site up for about 4 months, but redid the site on my mac and had reloaded it. I am grinning BETH, thank you! If you need a server for your website, contact these folks...they are at the top of the list for service.

Back to art! This is another small painting I did as a prelim to a larger one I will work on when my canvas order arrives from Rupen in California. Diane Whitehead turned me on to Rupen. He has Canvasplace.com. Terrific prices on hand made, hand stretched canvas. GOOD quality, great prices too. (Sounds Like I am in advertising....hummmmm did that for 8 years!) Anyway, Rupen has expedited my order out since I have only four large canvas left to paint on!

I am off to my Mac Class.... smiles for the miles and remember to give thanks today...and to hug and tell someone you love them and you care.

Grace,
Laurie

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' 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

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...
