This piece is being thought out with a bit of frustration. It is with a gallery in mind that has the mindset of telling the artist what they want or need for selling...which is truly NOT the way an artist works if they

SOLD  There truly is excitement for me as an artist at this point in the painting.  You have three layers beginning to work together. You are constantly reminded of life and the weave of experiences in our every day existence. On the Third Day of Christmas...

Day Two Progression 4 x 6 Feet Oil on Canvas. SOLD  Today was a light day of just wiping and coating the canvas with blue paint over the words. I do not want to cover the words yet, but want them to bleed through this layer.  You can see the photo I am working from and my sketch to decide on paint movement... Sometimes it works, and sometimes it does not! Stay tuned tomorrow.

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Progress on first day.  4 ft by 6 ft  Oil on Canvas. SOLD  While it is not the new year yet... I am back in the studio at work.  As I began this painting, I painted in the words of favorite Bible verses and the Lord's Prayer. It is always inspiring to me to know what verses people are 'attached' to in their lives.  This would be their inspiration verses, or confirmation verses, or something they cling to  in all time. Watch for paint tomorrow in this progression Horse painting.   On the First Day of Christmas... A Partridge in a Pear Tree The partridge in a pear tree is Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, whose birthday we celebrate on December 25, the first day of Christmas. In the song, Christ is symbolically presented as a mother partridge that feigns injury to decoy predators from her helpless nestlings, recalling the expression of Christ's sadness ove

Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Ponies on the Ridge 24 x 36 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.   I started this painting several weeks ago and shared two images in progress. I am JUST now getting back to it and this would be the next image as I blocked in the horses with charcoal. Again if this does not work the painting evolves into something else. That is how man survives, if something isn't working, you have to evolve to live another day.  When you give birth to a child, you never know what lies ahead for them in their lives. You raise them up right and true and in His word. Sometimes you forget they are an individual person an

This one will be a nude.  But I cannot figure out why I stupidly put a circle in the middle of the composition as that is a huge no no.  Must be the heartbeat of the painting...the oncoming nude.  More tomorrow.

We are often challenged by disease that appears unexpectedly.  Our bodies have a marvelous ability to rebound back and fight off and restore itself against most attacks.  Everything in us is alive and good health is a state we all seek.  It is at times that 'bad health' creeps in that we must keep our thoughts on life and healing and affirming His hand in our lives. If you know someone that is suffering right now from a disease they cannot fight and 'win' on this side of life, time to prayer for healing to rise up and heal them with the life ever after.   Pray for each other. Times are hard and often people
