Laurie Pace - Fine Artist

   © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Rocky Mountain Herd Sold  30 x 40  Oils on Canvas    by Laurie Pace   Do I remember this painting?   YES!! I had FUN painting it. Buffalo Run and total fun.  Compared to my other buffalo pieces, this has motion. It Rocks!!!   My favorite Buffalo painting!  As I step back into painting I see authentic motion and not a ' pretty painting' necessarily.  This piece went to Mirada Fine Art in Colorado, but Steve Sonnen, the owner, did not think it would sell.  It did. It did right away at the show I painted it for! It actually makes me want to start one right now.... I do not think I have enough paint, but it might be worth finding out! Layers of color and overlays create this entire painting, keeping a tiny part of the realism and loosing to abstract shapes throughout. This type of work brings joy to me as the painter and to you and ...

SEASONS OF LIFE ~ Wild Life Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 X 36 inches Oil on Canvas Contemporary Art for the Home AVAILABLE AT THE RARE GALLERY ~ JACKSON HOLE, WYOMING. Saturday morning finds me in the studio. I will be working on my pieces for the SR Gallery in Hong Kong. That is my weekend of painting! This piece above is for the RARE GALLERY in Jackson Hole Wyoming. It is piles of layers of color catching the sunlight in the field with grazing buffalo. Buffalo almost disappeared when the white man took over the west from the Indians. It is simply delightful to see buffalo grazing today....be it here in Texas on a local ranch or in Colorado or the deep west. Take a deep breath this morning and allow the grace of the Lord to fill your lungs and spread through out your body. If you sit quietly and deep breath through about ten breaths, you will find yourself rested as if you napped and the rest you feel with in is His Grace sapping out the tension, the worries and the stress. ...

Buffalo Pull ~ Wildlife Art by Laurie Justus Pace 22 x 28 inches Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas Contemporary Art for the Home SOLD It is early. Terry was not sleeping well and woke me at three....so now it is almost four thirty and he is snoring away and I am wide awake. Figure it was a good time to blog. He worked physically too hard yesterday moving heavy refrigeration equipment at his dad's house. I am concerned he has hurt himself. The house is under contract and we have but 11 days to finish cleaning out the remainder of the garage. Our second concern is his dad working over there too much as well. I believe Terry is way over tired. This is a buffalo pull with oils. Painted from pictures I took this summer. Painted with the same patterns of pulling the paint and finding what flows from the set up. Somehow that seems to be life as well...so much happening and pulling around us and since we have such little control, we have to make life out of what is around us. There are sea...
