God's Symphony

You have to get up early in the morning to watch the sun wake up the world. It touches the earth with gentle colors of lavender and pinks before it erupts into full colors.  The Sunsets are the same but in reverse. As the sun sets we are presented with a kaleidoscope of colors blazing across the horizon. After the blaze, the sun sets kissing the earth good-bye in lavenders and blues.

Each color is in harmony to His palette and choice of colors. The beauty resonates within me each morning when I take Paddy outside after a long night inside. I miss the sunsets usually working but occasionally we will go for a family walk with Paddy and I am 'treated' with the sunset colors. 

This reminds me how important it is to stay in harmony with God and with the journey I am making. I know He keeps me wrapped in divine love. When discord creeps into my thoughts or words before I can stop it, I have to immediately 'check' myself and regroup. Sometimes an apology is needed if I react instead of thinking first.  So easy to be out of tune isn't it. I cannot be apart of His Symphony like that. I want to live in harmony. 

May your day be harmonious and filled with God's Symphony of love, grace, joy and abundance.

"Clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony." Colossians 3:14

'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...

Line Shape Form and SPACE, the fourth element of Art by Texas Art Teacher Laurie Pace.

Line Shape Form Space Frank Lloyd Wright said:      "Space is the Breath of Art." By definition:   Space is an element of art; space refers to distances or areas around, between or within components of a piece. Space can be positive (white or light) or negative (black or dark), open or closed, shallow or deep and two-dimensional or three-dimensional. Sometimes space isn't actually within a piece, but the illusion of it is. With little ones we always have donut day when I teach space...but we cannot do that over the internet.  So I took up my pencil and looked around the studio. I spotted first one of my stools in the studio... so I quickly shaded in the space around it.  Then the coffee cup holding my hot tea.... and then just a jack that was sitting on the table. (More of my work further down in the blog.) So how can you turn this into art that it works in a composition? Here is an example by M C Esher.  ...
