Oil on Canvas  SOLD  by Laurie Pace  

We turn the pages back focusing on an unusual painted pony from my collection. It was completed in 2022 and sold from Mirada Fine Art in Denver. I am not a 'yellow' person at all. I use it for accent but rarely in this amount on any painting. Yellow, white and a light rich brown blend in the sky to the fields with green and brown and orange grass.  You can visually see the blue bridge start on the left side of the canvas  and pull across in strokes like a bridge or a mountain with pulls of blue through all the legs reaching the greens.  

I am preparing in my heart and head for a possible show in North Carolina. I would like to enter my work and it be one of my painted ponies. I will be playing with a color palette before I begin to put this piece together.   What other mixture of Colors do you see in your mind? 

I did a full blog on this painting at my website. You can click through here to read it. Sunlight Play in the Meadow
 
My oldest son has three sons of his own.  He just started  a really enjoyable Youtube channel called The Housebound Husband.  I will share more links but try it out.  He is on FB, Instagram, and I think Tic Tok.  I know I am not spelling that correctly. I will be sharing his home site in a few days on the right side of my blog. His merch he has available will be perfect for Father's Day. 

Enjoy your week.  We have cooler temps and more rain coming in.  I am heading out to fix lunch and it is almost two pm.  Blessings to you,  Elle

Sunlit Bowl

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Sunlit Bowl Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   A Painting of soft pink and white flowers   created in 2013 brings back memories of living at Lake Cypress Springs. I loved it there. It did not love me!  Mold was my downfall.  I was prolific at painting there with my studio looking over the waters of a large catfish pond and Lake Cypress Springs. The mold pushed us back to DRY Dallas.  God guides our path today.  Memories are flooding in with the morning sun.  Proverbs 4:18    “ The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.”  Today will be over 100 degrees but by Saturday the high is 79. Weather is the main talk these days. Remember I am in Texas.   We heard they may get snow in the Ohio River Valley. We are to see storms from the Pacific Hurricane coming our directio...
A Bit of Wonder Contemporary Horse Oil Daily Painting Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 x 30 x 2 inches of thick buttery oils! Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...

It has to head to Mirada Fine Art in about three or four weeks... meanwhile it will be banished to the room with the dehumidifier in it.  Stay tuned at Mirada Fine Art with Steve Sonnen for more details about what is happening to this "crowd" from my Good People Series.  In fact, drop Steve an email and ask to be added to the mailing list for this special gathering.  Good food, good friends and good art.   What more could you want? Email Steve here.   Tell him to put you on the list for  the Special June Showing. Laurie Pace A Texas Artist Golden Pond Studio My Blog          My Website     ...
