Dawn's Early Light
Oil on Canvas  SOLD  by Laurie Pace  

This contemporary colorful horse painting was done in 2015 for a show, and it sold in the first few days. I have a passion for color and a strong eye for composition. This piece was done in 'one paint', in other words, no painting over it.  I rather liked the approach even today looking backwards. 

1 Peter 5:7 "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."

I chose this verse in thoughts that many of us are going through trying times. In Bible reading it is evident if you have anxiety or fear, you are not at peace with God and His way.  Our trials are challenges for us each to learn to not have the fear or anxiety or worry.  One writer said the actual words, "If you have fear or worry, then you have a door open for Satan."  Next time I blog, I am going to try to remember the book I was gifted to read.  It means much to me because the piano and classical hymns are how I spin from low to full of God's grace.  I play the piano and sing in my head... sometimes out loud... but the music is flowing through me with pure strength and my concentration is closing my eyes and listening to it. 

In times of trouble music is always my first need. I picked up my harmonica and I kept playing this one tune over and over. I asked Terry... and... that will be another blog in the future!  Blessings my friends.  Laurie

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.

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

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...
