This painting was way way too fun. Is that possible? Find joy in everything you do. I certainly did. I am trying to figure out how to do this on a large scale. I love it. I loved creating it. Started with a mess and continued to grow. The first one was the Snow Drift painting just before Christmas. Then I played with this one.  As soon as I can figure it out on larger canvas, I will do it!

 Do you have your favorite jeans or slippers of Jamas? We each are surrounded by 'comfort' items in our lives. Mine is the heated mattress pad on our bed. OH MY... do I look forward to climbing into a warm bed when it is cold outside. What are your comfort items? Where do you feel at home and relaxed where you can block it all out. All of the tension and stress that has followed you around needs to be banished. How do you do it?

 These are material comforts. That tiny babe we celebrated  a few days ago can actually give you even more comfort. I think of it coming from the other part of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit. Jesus told us  "I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever."  In my mind, the Holy Spirit is woven throughout my being. He is constant comfort and often sits waiting for me to realize that when I get over taxed and stressed. He can instantly calm my emotions and my fears if I turn to him. Be aware of the presence of the Spirit in you. Center on God and you will be filled with the Holy Spirit.

 "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things." John 14:26

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...
