The next two pictures Morgan painted yesterday. He is unable to work and is painting to try and raise his rent money due in a week. He should be able to return to work on Tuesday but he lost an entire week of wages with his motorcycle wreck!

This is part of his OIL POP MUSIC SERIES....contact me if you want to make an offer, even if it is a small offer on either of these pieces. The are both 22 x 28 so they are rather large paintings. CONTACT: Laurie but mention the painting's title.


RED ELECTRIC GUITAR





ALVEREZ ONE

The house is so quiet this morning... I will be dipping into my paints as soon as this blog is finished. Quiet anticipation and meditation as I prepare for the day.

Stacey might come over to do maternity shopping. She can't button her pants anymore. She is I think 16-17 weeks now which is WONDERFUL!! Panic Attacks come easier as she watches her body change. I keep her focused on the miracle happening with in! God is good. Mid October we might know if Tink is a Boy or Girl. THey are in the process of name choosing and both parents are not on the same track.

Morgan drove home yesterday and took baby dog Sasha with him. She is a mess, but a beautiful puppy. She dug up every inch of dirt in the garden room. Took me an hour to clean it and wash the floors yesterday. He hopes to be back at work on Tuesday. He has a standard shift truck and the injured foot is the clutch pedal. He has to be able to get a shoe on his foot.

SEE his foot in the bottom left of the picture? That is the post op surgery shoe he is in. His foot and ankle are bandaged and dressed with special meds in the dressing. Same with both arms. The other bad spot is the palm of his right hand. He lost a lot of skin and tissue there. Prayers are needed for a 40 day healing period.

Today I encourage you to keep joy inside of you. DEEP inside of you. True joy does not depend on outer circumstances, it comes from deep in your heart and soul. It is this pure joy that can keep you on an even keel where you are not disturbed by outward distractions. With this joy you will see life and the happenings around you in a different light. The troubles and difficulties that occur are fleeting while the joy with in is there forever. God Gifted you with Joy....so find your joy today!

Grace,
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...
