What Dreams Are Made Of

What are in your dreams? What do you think in your heart is missing from your life?   Often it is for things we think we need and God has better things in mind for us. We limit so many things by our own thought process and often do not truly believe that there are no limitations to what joys He has for us.

I get to see my Dad today and I am bursting with excitement.  With Alzheimers he does not know who I am, but those same brown eyes embrace me with his warm smile and for that split second I can believe 100 percent this is my DAD. Whenever some one asks me who I would love to have dinner with in an interview... it is with my dad before the disease hit him.  I am so grateful my Mom is healthy and still the wonderful person she has been my whole life. She brings joy to every day.

Dreams are made of ...what?  Sounds like a painting in the making... are you ready for the challenge?  That may have to be part of the workshop in May.

I have been to Asel art and Jim is helping me compile a list of some new things to bring into the already busy schedule...but they are a must for our weekend. SOO MUCH but not too much... I want to get you into what dreams are truly made of... our unlimited imagination, our unlimited spirit and our purest heart as we create.

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.

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...
