© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Racing the Sunset Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Count the horses!!!  The strength of the pack of wild horses as sunset settles in the west. Count the horses again!   This is 3 x 4 ft in size.   It was a commissioned painting and painted between 2011 and 2012.   John 11: 25-26  "Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?”   Storms hit early this morning around 4:45. The winds were strong at 65 mph. I am not sure if we had hail or not but it was reported in the area. The rain should be clearing by mid morning, and I know our trees and grass and flowers are benefiting from this moisture. Summers are harsh here.   Seems like our lives happen in the same way. Things arriv...

"It comes in steps before you feel the full power of love surrounding you. Same with this painting... I had an odd beginning with acrylic light layers before the oil joined the circle. I chose horses of course and in their true color of spirit... for me the Spirit of the Paint is God and His unfailing love for us. I bring you Circle of Love to start every day with!"  Elle   CIRCLES Circles are important in our lives. I came across an article on circles. Humans are drawn to the shape and even young babies  prefer Circle to straight lines.  A preference for circular shapes is deeply ingrained in all of us from birth.  "A 2011 eye-tracking study found that at five months of age, before they utter a...

"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 ...

"Every painting has a reason and a season. It felt like abstract but I did not know how it would progress. I sectioned the canvas in quarters and laid basic colors in weaving them between.  I worked while the paint was crazy wet. I wanted the edges to form the boundary defining objects.  Can you see repeated patterns in this painting? The purple, red and blue merge through three times.  Yellow patterns in quarters three times... and three yellow pulls on or close to the vase.  Three large turquoise areas around the outside of the vase. Two on one side and one on the opposite side. So much of this is accidental, but is it truly accidental?  Part of painting is the intuitive pull of the palette knife as if in rhythm t...
