Thanksgiving happened... and then the schedule was compromised by Doctors appts and weather changes left and right.   So I missed posting for over a week.   I am going to try and finish out this year before I cut back dramatically.   

FIRST:  HOLIDAY30

SECOND: You are right. 
I have been so busy with home and health for family I have not painted as much as I thought I would. I still have a painting to begin that is a gift from me to a special person in Canada.  She touched my heart with her love of animals, horses, riding and jumping.  We only meet amazing people like her once or twice in our lifetime and I knew I wanted to paint for her. I promise to post progress of the painting. I have not been this excited to paint in a long time. 


Ecclesiastes 3:1-8  
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
 a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, 
 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, 
 a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, 
 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, 
 a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, 
 a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, 
 a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.

Not sure it is the coming of the new year of the acceptance in my heart of needed change. Every day is full of change and we learn how to navigate new challenges with each day. Some are more challenging than others. What direction are you going in?

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' 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...
