SOLD SOLD SOLD on Daily Painters! Thank you!






There are two paintings in this series and they would look wonderful bought and hung together. The bottom pictures shows them hung together. The colors literally run from one to the other engaging and blending. This is one of my favorite approaches to painting! Tomorrow I will post the second half of this series. Haunted Reds Two.

We were at Fed Ex yesterday visiting with Pam as I shipped things out. We were talking about balance in our lives. God provides so much for us all the time. BUT, do you hear yourself when you are tired....if something is not wrong with things in the house, it is your spouse that is not fixing them; or your neighbor has left things out you don't want to see; or something is off with one of your children, and if it is not your children it is your parents; Or something is happening at work, and if that is not it, it is something off with one of your coworkers; or if that is not happening then something is wrong at church, or someone has caused a ruckus somewhere in your life. ALWAYS something is wrong and we seem to focus on it. We should not do that. We should immediately stop those thoughts and find the positive around us. The great weather we are having, the food we ate for breakfast, the hot coffee or tea we are sipping at this moment; Give thanks for our health, our working fingers at this computer, the ability to think and move with out the affects of MS. After you do that, then pray for those that REALLY have a lot to bear. My neighbor's sons just went through surgery for one adult son to donate a kidney to the other adult son. The kidney went in fine and was perfect for the past week, and suddenly yesterday it failed. Her husbands son-in-law broke his neck yesterday and at the time she wrote, he was in surgery that had extended past six hours. My sister-in-law has MS, my dad has Alzheimers....things we cannot fix or make disappear. Look at your self sitting here at this moment...do you not have a multitude of blessings to count?

Shalom,
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

   © +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...
