Under Texas Stars... you may find the Holy Spirit Moving with Texas Artist Laurie Pace

   © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2023 Under Texas Stars 24 x 24  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Shop other Available Artwork.  Sign up for my quarterly newsletter and painting sales. This painting "Under Texas Stars" is one I totally forgot about having the deep blue backgrounds.  I painted this in 2014 and it sold immediately after I placed it on my website.  Texas is a wide open state with a few glitches called Dallas, Ft Worth, Austin, San Antonio, Houston etc.  Those big cities are so bright they often outshine the stars where it is nothing but city lights.  The night sky in Texas is incredible. The stars seem brighter and larger than anywhere despite being further south!   When we lived at the lake, I have shared often the peace of the night sky and NO airplanes overhead. "But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you wha

IN progress... Wolves by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

   © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2023 Wolves in Progress 38 x 58 Oils on Canvas COMMISSIONED PAINTING    by Laurie Pace   Shop other Available Artwork.  Sign up for my quarterly newsletter and painting sales. I will always remember this painting. The verse written on it you have seen on this blog and my website... the Lord's Prayer covers the front of the canvas before a light wash of rust red was tinted over it. The wolves were drawn on and the painting began. This is truly a one of a kind, and the best thing to get is a commissioned painting that is one of a kind.  "Blessed are the Peacemakers, for they will be called Children of God." Matthew 5:9 A short blog today. Been busy with learning curves on FB, and Instagram, cooking and then tending to friends.   We all have times in life where our feelings may be hurt by words from others, some intentional hurts, and some that just slip into happening. What do you do with them? A wise min

The REAL final Bubble Horses! From Texas Artist Laurie Pace aka Elle Pace

  © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2023 BUBBLES to the win... HORSES FINAL Photo! LARGE... thinking it was 3 x 4 ft SOLD at La Jolla Gallery 4 years ago... commission your own painted ponies!  by Laurie Pace   Shop other Available Artwork.  Sign up for my quarterly newsletter and painting sales. I did find the final photo of the bubble Horses!   It originally went to a show at Mirada in Denver but traveled to California and sold from The La Jolla Gallery back four years ago. Layers of color and overlays create the entire painting, keeping part of the realism and loosing it to abstract shapes throughout.  I always find the sooner I drop trying to control a painting's direction, the better it is. Let's get one commissioned for you and your home!  The True Original Painted Ponies!

Going through the files continues and the bubbles became horses. I have to cross reference which horses because these were photos off my iphone in 2016 the first year in the smaller house and smaller studio!  Change  There is much to think about and write about. Times are a changing... and that is unavoidable. I saw the words "STAY AWAKE" and that struck me strong this morning. Had to do with Russell Brand... who left Hollywood and wanted to change his life several years ago. It has not been an easy journey from what I understand, but he and his new wife are happy living a quiet life away from it all. His new wife said when they met again a second time in life, they developed a deep connection. "You have to rebuild your foundat

Midnight Blues, Contemporary Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

   © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2023 Midnight Blues 8 x 8  Oils on Canvas SOLD!    by Laurie Pace   Shop other Available Artwork.  Sign up for my quarterly newsletter and painting sales. This painting started with a conversation on the flat side of the canvas.  I rotated it over and over and saw many things and shared it on my FB page and everyone made comments about what they saw in it!! You will have to go check it out... From Walrus, to turtles to wolves to more, and I even found a face of a man!!! I was honored this painting sold the first day I put it up.  This is gift buying time and I hope to see increase a bit in sales for the next few months. I better get busy and paint... right? WHERE have I been? Gracious, I was hit with Vertigo really bad and two days into it, a spider bite on my small toe where it connects with the foot. That was three weeks ago and I am still treating it.  Barefoot or flip flops and that does not mesh will with Vertig
