"Vivid images are like a beautiful melody that speaks to you on an emotional level. It bypasses your logic centers and even your intellect and goes to a different part of the brain." Steven Bochco

Every painting has it's own rhythm and voice.  I paint by music. Each painting has a variety of songs and words behind the process. Our lives are no different ... we have our own rhythm and voice.  Each a unique timbre of sound in the melody of life.  What is your melody? What is your life?

Here at the "Lazy Ours" we all have our day to live in the best way we can. Terry is man of all trades between yard, veggie growing, roses, flowers, cooking, helping with cleaning, wash etc. Lady L has her chores...feeding the dog, helping with dishes, clearing the table, picking up the den each evening and often reading to her baby sister. Me... I am suppose to be painting, blogging, marketing etc...but I want to be cooking and cleaning and among the family and NOT at the computer. I miss some of my regular chores and want to find that balance in life again. I love having babies and children around so living with my granddaughters is pretty special. (Week Four)  Our daughter Stacey does her home business work with real estate... as Lauren says she talks on the phone most of the day...'blah blah blah'... make us laugh when she imitates her. Stacey keeps up with laundry folding, helps with cleaning, dishes, errands, some cooking, and shopping. Larry... well he works every day leaving at 6:15 and often not returning home until 6:30 or 7:00 pm. On the weekends he helps with whatever we are doing.  I would say our musical output is more like a symphony in action... everyone coming in to help at the right moment contributing to the household.

Gotta love it. Each of the seasons is beautiful. This is just a quick Youtube share. 

What is your "music" in life? Laurie

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.

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...
