JAMBO ~ Abstract Horse Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace

30 x 30 inches
Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas

COMMISSION PIECE

SOLD





Jambo is a Canadian horse. I could tell from the pictures he has an attitude, but it seems to me although he is assertive in his mannerisms, he is loving and kind on the flip side. He is a powerful playful horse and I hope I captured it. His owner is as adventurous as his horse and I think they must be well matched. Had it not been Thanksgiving time and me in a move, I might have flown up to meet this horse before painting him.

Yes we ate much yesterday at Stacey's. She and Larry out did themselves and Morgan and Hillary helped in food prep arriving early in the morning. By the time I arrived everything was completed but Larry's roasted vegetables. Stacey made pies pies pies...yum. There were 16 of us there yesterday. Tom brought his contribution of bacon wrapped goodies that disappeared with in minutes of his arrival. In the midst of celebration Stacey tried, but failed to win me over to the idea of getting up at three this morning to go shop. Tempting as it was to feel young again and go do that, I said no. Instead I was up at four with a major headache!

With the celebration of Thanksgiving now behind us, we face the fast moving weeks that fly by till Christmas. I am already savoring these days because they are my favorite time of the year to view most folks in a better mood. Too bad they can't realize they can have this same mood year round by just applying the joy of the season daily instead of this one month a year. Divine Order is provided by God in our lives. We have this human flaw of trying to control everything, often throwing divine order into chaos. Chaos brings on dissatisfaction and unhappiness. Don't make it so hard in life. Let go and Let God bring in his Divine Order to your life and don't sweat the details. He will right he wrong, sooth the pain, and light the way.

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 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...
