ALIKE MINDS ~ Contemporary Horses by Laurie Justus Pace

24 x 24 inches
Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas


Good Thursday Morning to you. I commented to Terry I was beginning to feel my age as I got up this morning. We cleaned out half the garage last night because of trash pick up today and I certainly could feel it when we got up at five thirty. We have a Fire Inspection next week for our CPS certification. NO rubbish allowed. Not sure what they will say with all my cardboard for shipping my work.

This painting is in Wyoming at the Shooting Stars Gallery, but I also have it listed on a new internet site for my work. Patrick at www.eleganthorsepictures.com is now exclusively carrying my giclees and prints and low low price posters. (Which I do sign!) They are all printed here, signed and mailed from my studio. My page on this site is www.eleganthorsepictures.com/laurie-pace.html .
PLEASE check it out. You might find some good prices for Christmas gifts, birthdays or just for yourself. He carries some well known artists on his site. (Donna Howell Sickles, G Harvey) Patrick is out of St. Louis, which is where I was born. We have visited on the phone over the past four months and I finally agreed to try this avenue out. God seem to be pointing to a door and Pat, I have opened it!

I know I wrote about Terry and I trying to understand the direction God is indicating in our lives, but when things like this happen with Patrick, I have to trust and open the door and give it my best to see if that is something I should be doing. As we wait for direction on the sale of our house and the home waiting for us, I realize God is working on so many OTHER things that the timing MUST work out. I guess I am explaining it right. God has an ultimate plan for us but certain things must fall into place for us to take the next steps in our journey. We will wait on the Lord trusting.

I know our Father is working in your life too. Tomorrow is not important, today is. All the events in your life have led up to this moment where you are right now. Your past is over, today is here. Stop right now and close your eyes and give thanks to the One that brought you here. You choose your thoughts every second of the day. Choose to be positive and while you are giving thanks, pray for someone in your life, pray for your neighbor, pray for a stranger. Pray for the family down the street that is facing Cancer or Alzheimer's. Take the focus off your situation and pray for someone else. Let God take over your life and your stress. Give it up to Him. Move forward in Faith and embrace the unlimited possibilities in your life.

Shalom,
Laurie

Laurie there is an Indian spirit impression in your painting to the right and above the left eye on your right horses head.

I hope all is well with you.

You are inspiring me, only time will tell if it will come to fruition.

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.

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...
