Monday Lesson on Vacation! BUT enjoy my 12 Days of Christmas Giveaways starting today. Laurie Pace Texas Artist

Well, I debated on a lesson, but things are really popping with the holiday ahead. So we will miss two weeks because of what you will read about below.  I am testing a pumpkin pie today made with heavy cream coconut milk in place of the dairy milk in all the other recipes. Will have to let you know how it comes out.  ALSO, Terry and I are going to make some homemade cinnamon raisin bread to eat this week. 
A testing for it too.

 THEN I had this crazy ideas after just playing with acrylics this weekend in front of the fire with cold wind blowing and the threat of sleet... why not do 12 Giveaways NOW as my 12 Days of Christmas sharing and giving to you.  If you enter ONCE during the 12 days that is all to keep you name in the hat.  Below all this info is the winner of last week's pony, so keep reading.

 There are no funny songs or words, only small paintings that usually are practice pieces or just plain gotta paint frustration pieces, or even some prepaints for larger paintings.  So no art lesson for two weeks and without further chattering...

Determined 
Sent to new home! Thank you.

The first painting is a horse painting I did this past summer. Definite energy with the color.

The winner of the last week Wednesday Give Away is
SHERRY F. from Canada.  There were quite a few entries and I thank you for continuing to follow me for these surprises. Just think there are 12 days of them starting today!

If you live in the United States, I know you are preparing this week for Thanksgiving.  The holidays are upon us for many people celebrating Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and for our family, Christmas.  This is the perfect time to give away 12 paintings and one or two are larger paintings. Register just once emailing me and your name stays in the 'hat' for me to pull out each day. The first winner will be chosen AFTER two days because the blog comes out on Monday but it is emailed on Tuesday to my subscribers, so there will be a delay. 

If you live out of the continental USA and you win, you must cover your shipping. Just email me to be enter for the 12 Days of Christmas Give Away.  

 Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. James 1:12

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...
