Laurie Pace - Fine Artist

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2014 Color Rising 24 x 36 inches Oil on Canvas. SOLD  A beautiful new painted pony piece for a friend in San Francisco to decorate her new law office.  She asked for the feminine colors and I think I delivered it in this contemporary horse painting. With some deep thought and a lot of prayer, I may be not be blogging daily.  I can only believe you get tired of getting my emails daily and seeing either older pieces or old thoughts even at times.  With the job of editor of Visual Language Magazine I stay pretty involved on the computer with many artists daily. I am working this spring to be back in the studio more and bring to you NEW work and new pieces and new ideas for art.  If there is anything you would like to see me paint, please email me by clicking HERE, or going to my website and use the CONTACT ME page . I want to celebrate you this year and try to give back more to my

SOLD  With the power in the bottom half of the painting I know I will be reworking the top half or the part you see from the light purple top left over to the darkening streaks behind the rider in this contemporary Horse Painting. I will probably take the images into photoshop to see direction before layering again with my knife.

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Reverence to the Sun 30 x 30 inches Oil on Canvas. SOLD  This horse painting is truly weaving together a very strong presence on this canvas. Brilliant colors blending and mixing with the layering of paint. I am smiling with the joy that seems to come from the surface as I imagine this great horse stopping to bow his head to the brilliance of the morning sun over the Rockies.  "And Mary said: “My soul glorifies the Lord      and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,  for he has been mindful     of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed,      for the Mighty One has done great things for me—     holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear him,   from generation to generation. He has performed mighty deeds with his arm;     he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. He has brough

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Reverence to the Sun 30 x 30 inches Oil on Canvas. SOLD  I get excited when the layering truly begins to define the horse and the spirit of the horse. The paints always mix together differently and the flow of energy varies with the climate outside the studio... God's influence always constant with every stroke of the knife. Spreading from the face through the powerful neck. The collector wanted defined muscles and movement with the stillness. I am not sure of the title, but this is what seems to feel like it fits, Reverence to the Sun. Sometimes the spirit just overtakes us in life and we burst forth with song or exclamations of thanks... Have you felt that this Holy Season? Usually I am breaking out in song and praising Him as I do. Even at the mall today with Lady L, choirs were performing Christmas carols and hymns and we were singing along. In a loud voice she exclaimed

Perhaps that is how the sky ended up so red... it was warm and cozy and my dog was at my feet. Another 'fun' painting to unwind that weekend. Too cold to walk and too cold and wet to leave the house. *Remember the winners will be chosen AFTER two days because the blog comes out on one day but it is emailed the next to my subscribers, so there will always be a delay of one day.  *If you live out of the continental USA and you win, you must cover your shipping.  Just email me to be enter for the 12 Days of Christmas Give Away.  Enter just once for the full contest if you want to.

      © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Progress of Spirited Journey -Gift of Love 30 x 40 inches Oil on Canvas. SOLD The process above was going from the primed acrylic canvas to find the motion or energy behind the horse for this horse painting. Again this is a similar paint to a horse from last year as a gift of love for someone that loved that original painting. The challenge is always to capture a new spirit with a different approach so you are witnessing a different way to get to the end... second layering of acrylic and then the oils come out on the bottom images... with a palette knife and NO IMPASTO to dilute the paint.  Yes it takes many many more tubes to do this, but the end effect is worth it. Words of my heart....We have all the pieces to put together our lives as God has in His plans for us, no different than this puzzle in progress. Read more Here.
