Yesterday Billie and I made a huge dent cleaning out the garden room and unpacking crystal. She hung glass holders in the bar for the wine glasses to slip into and got those safely in place. Her skills are endless as she flawlessly whipped out ideas for the studio. I even have my HUGE drafting board in here now, as well as TP's two desks, and room to teach and bring in my tables. Unbelievable! I will take pictures soon. I am painting this morning and hopefully she will be up soon to paint with me. She has been wanting to paint all week and I am like, "I cannot paint with the house like this..." I always work before play and painting is a joyful play for me. We discussed styles and ideas for the direction of my art. As a gallery owner she always seems to be a step ahead on what is pulling directionally. I am eager to paint...so on with this blog. Eager to step ahead.

The boys didn't work much yesterday. They went to an orphanage/school and played Santa Claus. Wish I might have been a fly on the wall. They did return to work about two hours moving some furniture from storage to here. Makes me realize how much I have to throw out in my life! So much stuff cluttering the joy.

Prepare your life for the new year...I sit in amazement at my world every day. Terry's cousin's daughter, she is 30ish...gave birth about 10 days ago to a premature little girl, Santana Rose. Santana only weighed 10 ounces at birth. We received word last night she is over a pound and doing quite well. What a miracle. This is the season that we seem to be more aware of them than any other time of the year.

God's richest blessings!
All of mine are here, THANK YOU CHARLENE!!! YEAH cookies arrived!!!!!

" And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.”Luke 2:8-11

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...
