'The Piercing Night' 30 x 40 inches Oil on Canvas SOLD COMMISSIONED PAINTING Contact me to commission a painting. Laurie © Laurie Justus Pace Graphics One Design 2010 The Painting : Well, this collector liked a painting I did last year called "in the Heat of the Night."

I decided I liked the horses better on the 30 x 40 inch spread allowing them a bit more space in development. The Thought: Well, I promised to share this morning, so here goes. Ken Vaughan graduated from Lake Highlands High School in 1970 with Terry and I. He was one of the founders (with me) of the art club, and I want to say the first president. We named the club "Arabesque" which they dropped somewhere along the way. So much for respecting the founders....
