Contemporary Dog Painting of German Shepherds by Laurie Pace
24 x 24 on Oil on Canvas with Palette Knife  -  Commission

Visit Ellepace.com to see available artwork. 


It was a week of sketching and sketching and getting to know the layout and curves and straight lines of the shepherds before I actually began painting with my knife. The dogs were sketched precisely on the canvas... and the thick paint began to pile high. These girls are heading to the west coast near San Francisco.  I was thrilled to paint for my collector in the Bay area.  I was even MORE excited she wanted the dogs painted like I paint my wolves.   Once the knife started, there is no telling the direction. One of those LET GO AND LET GOD days.  Up close you see the piles of paint and color peeking through here and there. Far away it give definition and dimension to the painting.  

I would love to work with you on a commission painting. Visit my website to find out more about commissioning a painting just for your home or office.

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...

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...

I may touch up more as I watch over it.  There are only  maybe three more we...
