© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 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...

Looking back to June in 2010... I am remembering this was a commissioned horse painting. I had done a series of these colorful paintings of three hors es the year before. It was hot that June in 2010 and I painted it in the back studio of my home overlooking the lake and our catfish pond.   I am up to any commissions if you are ready for something new and 'hot' in your life! " Hot town, summer in the city -  Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty.  Been down, isn't it a pity -  Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city. " 1966 The Lovin Spoonful   Still today, I find myself confronted by unexpected challenges in our daily life  and learning to lean more minute by minute with...

"I will always remember painting this piece . I had just started sharing my painting process on Facebook when disaster hit with Facebook and someone posting porn on my personal page and then six imposters hit my Meta account charging $9999 to my paypal account for advertising.  Talk about feeling trampled as FB froze me in every direction allowing those imposters to continue business... I would walk away from the computer and begin work on this painting thinking, dreaming, canvas prep... all of it and finally as you saw in the prior posts, the journey began. It is done and all through the power of God and not me. I felt lost a few times in the middle of it and He pressed me forward. I hope you ...

   © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2020 Wishing You Were Here  8 x 8 Oil on Panel  Daily Paintings   by Laurie Pace   Visit Ellepace.com to see available artwork.   I painted yesterday!  I did not start the dogs. I did a small 8 x 8 horse painting... the one above, as a Daily Painting.  It is available at $199.  The dog painting will begin today.  Slow progress on stamina.  I stood cleaning up mess before I could even do this painting.  By one in the afternoon I was pretty well ready to eat some lunch and break for the day. It was Saturday after all. I truly won't do much on the dog painting today.  I may finish the etching or begin with a light under coat to knock out the white canvas.  Pretty sure I will use oil.   What do you like to do on Sundays?   We still cannot attend church, or really safely go out to eat....

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Dancing in the Leaves 30 x 40  Oil on Canvas  Sold.  “ “And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.” Friedrich Nietzsche Fall arrives on the calendar next Tuesday.  Someone forgot to send the memo to those of us that live in Texas.  The Dallas Ft Worth area remain in the mid to high 90's and at night in the mid to high 70's. We are 10-15 degrees warmer than we should be. In the colorful painting of horses above, they are celebrating the cooler colorful nights and are up under the moon dancing in the leaves. When do you 'dance in the leaves'? God wants us to be happy in life and joyful. Today finds many of us tired and burdened with stress and work in our lives. ( I am probably talking about the 40 and up generations)  I am blessed to have three children, all married with children......
