The Light Within, is one of my painted pony pulls and I rarely do them.  But I did do this one today!   There is a tale of the Painted Ponies from Golden Pond Studio aka Elle Pace Studio. Back in 2006 a nude was turned into a field of ponies coming straight at you. That is when the story began of those painted pony pulls. There is only one available in large size and it is posted on my website but is at Mirada Fine Art. This is a small one. Left over paint which led to adding more paint and presto over the afternoon hours, The Light Within was born. This is the most collected of all my styles. The second most collected in the upper market 10-22K, is the Good People Story and there is one left of that style on the website as well, 60 x 90 inches. This sw

This was a work out over two weeks in the studio.  I put up video on FB and Instagram. Cannot figure out how to do it here!  I think it has to be embedded.  It began with soft acrylics to cover the surface...and then a sketch by hand of three horses. Being brave, I began painting in Acrylics but found the painting feeling disconnected or dull.  I whipped out the paints on Sunday  and finished it!  Now I am smiling when I look at the three... the front two take the message....  the middle horse has pulled up tilting his head to the horse on his left (your right) and his eye looking wildly at the red horse.  The third horse is not important other than making the presence of three horses.   Much to Consider Our times are flying past and many of you do

"The Omega" was painted in my Golden Pond Studio at Lake Cypress Springs.  It was a commissioned painting and I had so much fun doing it!  I believe we ended up rolling it to ship it to save on shipping and the new owner had it stretched and framed. As you can see there are layers of color and overlays everywhere! The energy in this horse painting is high! As far as the next free painting, it will be a few days. I want to do new things!   Layers of color and overlays create the entire painting, keeping a tiny part of the realism and loosing the rest to abstract shapes throughout!!! My Sams Adventure Our daughter grabbed me this morning for a trip to Sams.  There are things I love at Sams and things I love at Costco.  For organic veggies....

A New Experience I chose to share an acrylic flower this time. I am going to do a work out of many things in acrylics trying to decide if I even want them in my studio!  I have been working on a commission painting and had to use acrylic because of the time involved to 'give' it to someone.  It went better than I thought but I started differently. So the give aways will either be in oil or some will be new things in acrylic.  I hope to do this every second or third day but will always post it on FB or just check this blog daily.  BE READY "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds,  because yo
