Happy Thanksgiving with a Throw Back Thursday Photo

Thanksgiving 1975 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Available Paintings by Laurie Pace  Follow me on Facebook           Sign up for my monthly studio newsletter. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wishing you the blessings of this day of Thanksgiving.  This picture was taken back in 1975. My oldest son was only two months old and he loved visiting his grandparents. Giving thanks for so many things this day...from God's blessings and gifts, to family and friends, to our service men, our great nation and asking God for Peace on Earth.  From the Episcopal Book of Common Prayer: Accept, O Lord, our thanks and praise for all that you have done for us. We thank you for the splendor of the whole creation, for the beauty of this world, for the wonder of life, and for the mystery of love. We thank you for the blessing of family and

Sold. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Available Paintings by Laurie Pace  Follow me on Facebook           Sign up for my monthly studio newsletter. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was really excited to hear from Steve at Mirada in Denver that this painting sold.  It was in a small gallery on the west side of the Rockies for almost a year and the gallery closed. Steve asked me to ship this one to him at Mirada and I did. Truly did not take long until it found its rightful home.  I was fortunate to get a photo of it hanging.  Looks right at home! #horsepainting  #lauriepaceart  #equineart Laurie Pace A Texas Artist   My Blog          My Website          Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards

Sold ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Available Paintings by Laurie Pace  Follow me on Facebook           Sign up for my monthly studio newsletter. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I was approached one year ...maybe it was in 2010 or 2011 by a client that wanted to do a paint it forward painting for his home.  We went in circled discussions trying to pin down colors, style and direction but then were really stuck on size and cost. Made it happen for him. I had to send it rolled because it was so large. I am trying to remember but thinking it as 6 ft tall and maybe 5 ft wide, or four and a half feet wide. I did the painting in acrylic because of his time schedule for wanting it hanging.  This painting began a process for me that then carried on

It was a perfect spot for me to wander with my camera and snap pictures of families together, children playing and lots of games and competition as well as tables overflowing with food. Curb SItters was painted from one of my shots of the girls... each eating and sharing somethi

Sold. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Available Paintings by Laurie Pace  Follow me on Facebook           Sign up for my monthly studio newsletter. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This was one of my more 'fun' contemporary horse paintings using all of my favorite colors.    There are times when I paint that I totally lose track of time and space enjoying the intensity of the canvas and composition before me.  My 'work' is an expression of the  joy  in my life. When I work I pray the  joy of God  is expressed through my work.  Whatever I am painting, I want to share that happiness with those viewing my work.   Often while working I stop and take pictures and look at the images in Photoshop in reverse to know
