The Painting: A commission piece that was a treasure to paint. The more colors, the bigger my smile. This collector wanted the full scale and it is all present in this freshly painted pull.

The Thought: I had one of my newest collectors remind me about the little artist with the fuzzy hair on tv that always said, "There are no mistakes, only happy accidents."

I believe this to be a treasure full of words in both the art world and your world. God does not make mistakes. We do tend to have lots of mistakes... but to God, they are truly happy accidents. It is our inability often to make wise choices that brings us closer to Him. Therefore I believe there are no mistakes in our lives. We each must experience what we must to grow in the direction we are meant to grow.

Find the best in your day today and think about those little words, no mistakes, only happy accidents. It will lighten your view of what is happening around you.

I saw the painting you currently have on Ebay, and I was just stunned by its beauty. I had to google you and find your blog. These are some truly outstanding works of art. Thank you for shareing them. Maybe someday I'll be able to afford one of my own. Keep up the beautiful work!

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...

Line Shape Form and SPACE, the fourth element of Art by Texas Art Teacher Laurie Pace.

Line Shape Form Space Frank Lloyd Wright said: "Space is the Breath of Art." By definition: Space is an element of art; space refers to distances or areas around, between or within components of a piece. Space can be positive (white or light) or negative (black or dark), open or closed, shallow or deep and two-dimensional or three-dimensional. Sometimes space isn't actually within a piece, but the illusion of it is. With little ones we always have donut day when I teach space...but we cannot do that over the internet. So I took up my pencil and looked around the studio. I spotted first one of my stools in the studio... so I quickly shaded in the space around it. Then the coffee cup holding my hot tea.... and then just a jack that was sitting on the table. (More of my work further down in the blog.) So how can you turn this into art that it works in a composition? Here is an example by M C Esher. ...
