Woke up after a refreshing night sleep and had a hot shower, opened the window to 58 degrees and sun and gave Thanks.  


We are staying at Jamie Grossman Williams home in Palenville.  It is a respite welcomed to us.  Jamie's Catskill home here in the Hudson River Valley area was originally an old brick chicken house.  It stands on the side of a hill with the basement and open basement to the back yard and the next two stories on the entrance level.  The home is open like the outdoors... surrounded by nature, the beauty and sounds and peace and God.  Jamie's downstairs studio is absolutely everything an artist could dream of and the upper back deck extends out into nature and invites you to sit and be lulled asleep by the sounds and breezes.


Jamie is one of the finest Landscape Painters I have encountered.  I have watched her work strengthen and deepen in the past years and even asked her last night, what was the secret to the change I saw a few years ago...reason why is her paintings seem to have a touch of unique in them...that element of color contrast that seems pearlized at times.  Seeing some of her work in person left both Terry and I speechless.  I highlighted her name with the link above.  Please take a gentle "walk" through the Hudson River Valley with Jamie.

The auction was last night and my painting sold to a horse family from Connecticut.  The new owner seemed thrilled as she purchased several pieces from the auction.


We are off today and Jamie is going to tour us on the best painting spots of the masters.

Jamie's painting is lovely and I, too, would love to know what changed for her a few years ago and added the spark to her work. Did you ever get an answer?

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...
