Contact me for pricing and include the name of the painting. Laurie


Balanced is a good place to start the week. The window installers will be here today to begin windows. We are only doing 1/3 of the house but the major part that is important with large glass windows on the west side of the house and two huge 8 ft sliding glass doors that are non functional because they are broken. AFTER Tuesday...wow I will not know how to act!!!

Finding Balance in you life is an important thing. How does a busy woman balance church, home, work, children, a husband, meetings, hobbies etc.? I believe in my heart it is much more than time management. I believe it is in centering and balancing yourself.

My dear husband always says to Keep the Lord in the center. He visions in his head a circle and God is in the center of this circle. Everything else is circling in orbit around God in the center. The balance of everything is always changing. As in the universe and our planets, things are always drifting into different orbits intervening with set motion already there. Such is the vision in his head on life. Our church, homes, children, parents etc are all orbiting with us and THINGS keep interfering with the path of motion.

May your Monday be filled with balance.

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

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...
