I had a request for a print of this purple beauty.  I am working with FAA to see if we can make it happen for the collector.

Okay, Yesterday we went into Dallas; more Doc Appts and I spent the morning with my Mom.  We went by the Dutch Art Gallery where I got to see the selected wood for two of my commissioned paintings that will be framed there and shipped to the buyers. That is always so neat to see them with their frames.  Gives you a warm feeling.

A cold front came through the area and when we left yesterday morning it was 64 degrees outside, but by the time we hit Dallas it was 82.  Not sure what happened, but it was 95 on our way home at three pm.   Mom and I ran some errands.  One of the stops took us to our favorite neighborhood health food store.

The Owner is one of my oldest best bud male friends and he just got married. I did not know that when we arrived.  I had to tease him about it though, and of course wish him the happiness that God blesses marriages with, surrounded by His Grace.

Mom and I had lunch at ZUZU's on Abrams and Mockingbird.  It has to be one of my favorite places... and then to my next favorite place, THE CAR WASH!

Only when it is 100 degrees for an entire month, can you go to the car wash for a reprieve.  Mom puts the car into neutral and in we go whisked into bubbles and sprays. Leaning back in your seat and closing your eyes, you can image the threat of a huge storm pounding at the car and the strong winds blowing it to and fro and the huge wiping things squishing around the car and beating it.  The sound of a gigantic rainstorm fills your brain...but you are with out fear as that storm rages around you.  

The rain begins to lighten and you emerge slowly back into the light.  God is good. He is there even at the car wash. When things bring on a 'storm' in your life, rest assured that He really is right there with you and you are as safe in His arms as you are in the car going through the car wash.  

If we had one close by I would go through it daily for therapy.

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...
