The Horse Painting: Double trouble today, but Morgan is painting and I promised to post his work. He truly is stronger every time he paints. I just finished up the 3 ft by 4 ft horse in vivid reds and greens for a home in West Texas with a very tall wall by a desk! It was fun painting this one and I still may touch up some areas along the way.

Here is a slide show of the process:



The Thought: Found out on Friday that I have TWO shows in New York in August. Also found out I need double the work. I have been painting non stop and will be today as well. Terry is busy working on the bathroom. I know we will not make it up for the shows with the bathroom still unfinished. I am hoping to escape to the lake for a few days. I will need it after this!

When playing the piano, you have to move from the clinical play of a piece to the emotional playing of a piece. The pattern of sound tells a story and the touch of the musician gives expression to the story. The music can softly life you to a high plateau and tease you with building arpeggios. Then suddenly the music can fall silent ....hesitant....quiet. WHAM...the next play of fingers across the notes sends you with eyes flying open and your heart beating fast.

A passionate player can take your mind on a soulful journey through a song. They know just the right second to transcend into quiet and explode into energy.

God is no different. Just think about your life. If you are like me I pray for plateaus of peace. I know they are short lived but it is a time to rest and regain your strength. (I am hopeful for the lake trip) God would like us to be in preparation with our gifts, ready to use them at His timing. Be ready to accomplish things in His name today.

Turn off your computer today, and your television. Be a participant in life.

I just got an email just before I clicked published and my art is the art for today on eBsq. This is for Monday as I know feedblitz sends this out a day late..so those of you on feedblitz will see it on Tuesday... my art was chosen for Monday. Click the picture to visit EBSQ.

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...
