The Painting:  Lots of layers of exciting color! This is a large beauty that was a two day paint.
The Thought.   NEVER drink red wine.   At least for me.  I am not a drinker hardly at all, maybe an occasional sip of Terry's Margarita, or a few swallows of white wine...but never red.  I always get a migraine from one sip... and that is what happened. Wednesday night I had three swallows of red wine.  I should NEVER DRINK RED WINE.  

I was out of it all day yesterday and light was a killer to my eyes.  This morning is better, but I am running late as you can tell.    Today I am going to 'bless my body'.  From the top of my head to the tips of my toes I will breathe in and out and concentrate on this miracle of God and never drink red wine again. God's miracle keeps this body going through the marvelous system set with in it. My DNA is woven into every pattern of my being and my life. My life is but a tiny piece quilted into the big world. 

As my body heals today and I begin to paint again with out my head feeling detached...I will honor it and take care of it.  With new eyes for this new day, I will envision my body healed and whole.

The next miracle is catching up from six lost days in the studio; make that seven with the migraine yesterday.   

Blessing you with Health and Healing.... and a huge birthday hug to my daughter! Where were we in 1977?

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...
