Oh my gosh. It is Wednesday early, not quite six and I am up to paint immediately! I do have to pull some clothes together for donations being picked up today and put some old furniture out for additional donations. But I will wait till daylight. It is far from now with the DLS time.

My mother is mending with the love of the Lord and her family at home. Thank you again for your prayers with her hospitalization.

I am working on a commission pieces today for a horse ranch in Lufkin, Texas. It is a 3 ft by 4 ft painting of three of their favorite babies. AND then will sketch out a horse for a commission piece that will go live in Washington DC. After that work for the new gallery in Massachusetts, small pieces at least and hopefully to return to a portrait of a young girl that has been pending since the fall. Every day I come in this studio hoping to catch up, but have realized yesterday that will never happen. I must allow the journey painting to unfold as it comes. The unknowing of the future must be left in the hands of a knowing God. Our Father has the whole scoop and my trust in his timing must be total. The unknowing future must be trusted in pure faith to the knowing Lord. Keep that thought tucked close today.

In Faith,
Laurie

"Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The LORD is faithful to all his promises and loving toward all he has made." Psalm 145:13

I haven't been to your site in a while and I'm happy to see that your still painting so often. I just bought a new house and am in the process of moving, but the great thing is that now I think I will finally have space to paint at home.

This is beautiful, Laurie! I like the composition and brushwork. Do you have these trees blooming already?

We are just starting to see the ground here in north Idaho, as the snow is starting to melt in the valley. No flowers yet.

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...
