“No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” ― Eleanor Roosevelt, This is My Story

 Last night when I could not sleep, I was up journaling. I stopped to look something up on the internet and this quote jumped out at me and I wrote it down.  Little did I think a second thought that it would pop up on my search screen this morning when looking for quotes on wisdom. Twice in 12 hours.  At midnight, I was searching for a personal look at how you be bold with God's light and love in your life, and do it with humility.  God did not create us to be fearful or to feel afraid to live our lives.  He created each of us to shine with his light using our gifts.  More on my next journal on this. 

My dad taught me in my teens, the world was simply not about me. The "I" was not important. It hurt my feelings at the time. I was seventeen and in my first semester of college and I had written home about all that was happening.  His correction stayed with me in my conversations with others as well as my writing notes or letters.  Not sure about journals.

This painting was created in May 2010 and appeared in American Art Collector.  It was purchased within days of the magazine's release by a collector in Oklahoma. . Seems to me the dance and interaction between these three horses is amazing. If I had to identify with one of them, I would be in the back.  Where would you be?  I am a strong person, but have never desired the limelight.  As a teacher in my spirit, I am a nurturer and I want to see my students bloom and be happy and satisfied with their journeys.   

 "and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding, with knowledge and with all kinds of skills—" Exodus 35:31

'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.  ...
