Laurie Pace - Fine Artist

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Crossing the County Line 30 x 40 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Morning has broken... and the Texas Sun is heating up the day.    Wanted to share this contemporary Abstract Horse painting I did back in 2013.  Wild Horses are crossing the county line... the 'man drawn line' between counties in the state. Means nothing to the horses.  Their interest is to be near water and good grazing lands. In contrast to the wild nature of these wild horses... man keeps creating boundaries and lines and cutting back in the wild territory that serves as a home to our horses. Mirada Fine Art in Denver sold this fine piece of art! They have several of my painting  there.   Romans 15:13 "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." We never know when we rise each morning what the ...

This painting is truly a painting tied to my heart. I cannot explain it, but it is. The mist, the colors and the contrast all pull you on the journey across the canvas from left to right. It is almost as if they are stepping off the edge of the world into the mist... charging ahead. Christmas is arriving soon! If you want a commission painting, I still have time to paint something special for you! My Thoughts Above I mentioned how the horses are stepping off the edge of the world. The more I thought about that phrase, they are actually stepping off into the abyss.  I feel we all are on the verge of that abyss today or actually in the abys...

Shop Available Artwork.   Sign up for my quarterly newsletter and painting sales. Every painting has a journey. This one was a struggle in many ways.  It began totally different than it turned out. The original sketch did not work at all... resulting in me wiping the canvas as clean as I could. Then came sketching a new face that might work. Below are a few progress shots.  I have been a brown eyed girl my entire life. As I aged past sixty, I found a lighter amber and some green in my brown eyes!  Hence I sought such beauty in the eyes of this face.   But the close ups are amazing once the piece began to come together!  Each of us as a human being walking this earth go through the valleys and climb the mountains and experience life in so many w...

SOLD  This was one of the show openers at my Denver show that sold after the article came out in Western Art Collector featuring my work and the show at Mirada Fine art. What I did not realize is what a special gallery Mirada truly is.  When I was putting together the article on Mirada for Visual Language and Steve Sonnen sent me the editorial, I was pleased to read about the gallery and see everything.  If you missed it in the magazine, click here to see it. I was so honored by Steve's words: "Mirada features award-winning artists from across the globe. The stunning artwork at Mirada has been meticulously assembled. Although the artists come from across the globe originally, Mr Sonnen selected works that embody the spirit of the region. Mirada’s unique settling helped lure this...

I worked further but stopped here for images.  It is just a layer of paint in the process. The paint is sooo thick and layered that I have to let it set up slightly before I can continue.   Laurie Pace A Texas Artist Golden Pond Studio My Blog          My Website          Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards          CFAI.co      GALLERY LINKS Mirada Fine Art Denver CO ,   The Rare Gallery Jackson Hole WY   The White Dog Gallery Carbondale, CO.

We were driving from Virginia through Tennessee trying to make it to Memphis. Terry's dad was very ill at the time and we were anxious to get home. There always had been this sense of safeness in coming home. My mom was there at her house and Terry's dad at his place.  Home was not a plac...

It was another day with CFAI.co. Today I am going to pace myself to only 6 working hours as yesterday was 13 hours working on the site.  Those are my words of hope at least! Praying you had a safe New Years and look forward to 2012. We didn't dance or party like we use to... but we enjoyed the change in the year and feel like most people do that it a new start for many things in our lives. Choose for it to be a closer time with the Father. I am heading that way to my bible right now and will start my day in Psalms. Words of my heart, Laurie “Therefore, if anyon...
