Contemporary Art Palette Knife Oil Daily Paintings Horse by Laurie Justus Pace

I repainted the background, I think the thicker orange pops out the horses better.

Contact me to purchase. Laurie



I had this one hanging in the studio and decided it needed more orange paint so I attacked it again and am re-posting it. I have been busy with commission pieces I will start posting tomorrow. I can't wait to share them!

I am late posting as I was working on the Lakewood Series Book Submission this morning. I decided to combine some of my chapters. My word count is enough but my chapters were too many. Takes a while to go through 175 pages renumbering and retitling chapters with out confusing it all.

I am sure God feels that way when He is sorting through our individual chapters. We tend to be controlling and heading off in our own directions to do things. He has to take the time to untangle what we have done and create distractions in our lives to head us back onto the path He wants us on. I talk about that in my book submission that real life never is predictable.

To many of us it seems God is unpredictable, but I have since concluded that is false. God is forever in one place, one steady direction asking very simple direct things from us. We are the ones taking off in every direction tangling our lives up into a woven mess. I can picture the Holy Spirit within me laughing a lot and shaking his head in amazement at my incredible blunders every day. Stay the course steady and keep God in your focus. There won't be so much to untangle then.

Divine Order is a natural order that we all seem to miss in our lives. God is the only source of this divine order. Rise above your worries and concerns and know He will keep everything in balance.

Joy and Abundance,

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...
