Abstract Wildlife Painting WOLF HUNT by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace, Affirming Peace in my Life

Wolf Hunt

Lost count on layering but it finally pulled together with fur so thick it is off the canvas dimensionally. This is a deeply passionate Wildlife Painting of a wolf.

Affirming Peace

Cannot tell you how many times yesterday I literally stopped in my tracks and started praying.  Praying during the day is not unusual, but the way it happened yesterday was in total pauses.  When I was outside in the gorgeous day we had I lifted my face and arms up to the warm sun in the cool of morning and gave thanks.  When I felt weak during the day, I stopped again, went back outside and had a heart to heart with God.  I leaned on Him all day yesterday. When needs arose I stopped. I didn't panic, I didn't fret, I didn't allow any negativity to drive the day into a mess. I just stopped and paused and took a purposeful prayer break.

Each day is special. There will not be another one like it in your lifetime.  It offers you time to begin anew, to start over and have a new beginning.  With this new beginning will be His peace that comes with living purely in the moment with Him. His bounty is there every single day...but normally we are too busy to be there to appreciate it. So forget about the past and enjoy the now.  Lay down your stress, your fears and your worries.  Take up your peace through God and know today unlimited good being revealed to you.

Choose to live in His light and peace.

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...
