Last Morning

This morning Lori will arrive from Selah ranch to work with me for a few hours before flying back to Indiana.  She was my one student that flew in for this workshop with a broken leg.  She arrived mid day on Friday so I had promised some private time this morning.   Last night I began burning discs from my lap top to move images to the big mac. I cannot wait to share the workshop with you.  We have TWO blogs resulting from the workshop and by midweek I will share those addresses with you too!  Selah Ranch is definitely not the Ghost Ranch of Georgia O'Keefe, but it is now the top choice of Artists of Selah Ranch.  Commitments were made to do it again and to try and make it annual. This five star bed and breakfast is beyond your wildest expectancies.  As soon as the next date is booked... I will have it up for you to sign up... with time to save up to come!

It felt good to finish up yesterday and we were busy with the clean up. Jane left with Barbara Haviland to visit the Beaumont/Houston area for a few days and then she is off for Austin to visit Emily Leland, another Artist of Texas in Fredericksburg.  After that she heads out to Santa Fe.

How do you share the discovery of joyful creating with 13 incredible people? I hope to by tomorrow...Tuesday, after I catch my breathe somewhere along the way.  I will be painting already today as I have three more paintings to complete for Denver and 6 new ones for The Rare Gallery in Jackson Hole.  The picture snapped above was for PR for the Jackson Gallery.  I will be trying to finish this one today.

May your week begin with a day of His grace.

Laurie

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...
