Summer Horse 14 
2012 Oil on Canvas  SOLD  by Laurie Pace  

Caramel color is one of my favorites.  Summer Horse 14 should be named for that color.  Beginning to think this might be the time to paint some small pieces at yesterday prices just to get back to my palette knife. I want to stop painting oils, but acrylics just do not carry that buttery essence very long before they gum up. 

1 Chronicles 16:11-12 "Seek the Lord, Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced."

 Not much extra time today with a busy schedule and I have been doing the Bloom class with Nicholas Wilton. on FB it is Art2Life. I am still seeking my path back to the easel. Joy is returning in small moments and laughter comes easier.  I have done two wild things in my first two sessions totally not me but they were FUN!  Have know Nicholas and his work for that last 13 years. I have never dared to go quite this direction but it is opening up creativity again for me! 

Show and tell... Elle
Day 1 Bloom

Day 2 Bloom

Day 3 revisit Bloom Day 2 before the next class!

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...
