Still working on my 100 horse paintings for this year... small affordable ones for collectors.  This one is named for the scene outside my window...storms to the west, all dissipating before they arrive at our house. I can only gaze into the storm, not actually feel the rain! Contemporary Palette Knife Horse Paintings alway lead to lots of layering of paint. Here is a close up. Click it to see it large.

August really caught me off guard. I believe that July was such a huge month filled with too many parties and too much food that I am paying for it now. Layered on too much cake and too many times eating out!

Throw in Texas heat in the 100's and you gotta know where I am. 
Change is surrounding us daily in our lives. Trying to spool down to less stress reactions to the change is hard for me.  Trying to pick up my guitar more, play my piano more and I am cross stitching a baby blanket for the new coming grand-baby due early next year. 

I have decided I HAVE to start doing a studio letter once a month.  I firmly believe that people do not have time to read blogs every day. I do it for google to keep my work out there and it is a must to sell artwork. If you are anything like me, you probably delete this if it comes in email every morning.... if you did not delete it, you might sign up for my Studio letter and I will promise to try and get back in the habit!

'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...

Then added in some CW with George Strait.   Painting is not complete without some Classical and it was Debussy.  This was painted to be similar to a smaller painting created about three years ago.  Now in the sitting baking stage... I may touch up more as I watch over it.  There are only  maybe three more we...
