Polka Dots

God created the polka dot. Dots appear on so many things from the bark on some trees, to hard mottled rocks to flowers and feathers. When you think of animals that change colors and different types of foliage and camouflage... dots and polka dots are in all of it. Oh and how about those beautiful blue speckled eggs found in the early nests in the spring?

Have you ever flipped over some of those ferns that come from the florist? On the underside there are spots (spores) and what about all the animals with spots? Can you name some of those? Go to the beach and see fish and sea shells all gorgeously decked out in spots. My favorite flower on the stem is the Spider lily with its spots. Many birds have "spotted chests".

Golly, from fur, flower, fowl, fish, animals, butterflies and humans with freckles... polka dots are every where. Least we not forget mushrooms, toads frogs, turtles, worms, beetles and bugs. God has a wonderful sense of creation. I do believe He likes Polka Dots as much as my daughter does. I hope Lauren likes them too!

Terry skipped out on working on the kitchen to care for me last night. Sinus headache from our unusual weather tied in with unhappy stomach has kept me under the weather for several days now. I hope to paint this morning and get back into the groove.... I have an opening at the Dutch Art Gallery this Saturday, so if you are in the area, Saturday afternoon is the time, and the Dutch Art Gallery is the place. Pam is featuring several local artists so it is a beautiful display of colorful work in many styles. Email me for directions if you need them. I will be there as long as Stacey is not having the baby.

Do me a favor...see how many things you can find today with God's Polka Dots. Connect the dots back to Him.

in 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...
