Dawn Rising Contemporary Wolf Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Dawn Rising SOLD Contemporary Wolf Painting 24 x 36 inches Oil on Canvas. Watching this painting develop was fascinating. I wanted to leave it at the blue stage, but had to finish the journey. There were many more in between shots I could have shared but I know you get bored with some of the progress shots.   What was amazing was the back light and colors in the early dawn as the light was breaking through the woods. I can only imagine this wolf in the newly fallen snow from the night to look up to see the dawn.  Her coat is dusted with the snow, her fur fluffed out with her winter coat...a play of contrast in colors and in composition in this unique contemporary wolf painting. It is no longer available. Thank you Steve at MIrada Fine Art that sold it directly from the studio to his client.  Email me if you would like a wolf painting of your own.    ' Again the one who looke

Contemporary Wolf Painting in Progress by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Contemporary Wolf Painting 24 x 36 inches Oil on Canvas.  I really like it like it is.  I love the intense blues and the background colors gently coming through.  So by now you know this is not a horse painting. One of my wolf pieces sold and I was asked to paint another one similar. I always worry about the spirit of a painting when I am trying to capture a certain feeling and this one is truly developing it's own depth. Luke 6:36-38 - Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.  And do not judge and you will not be judged; and do not condemn, and you will not be condemned; pardon, and you will be pardoned.  Give and it will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, they will pour into your lap.  For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.

Blue Moon Wolf beginnings by Contemporary Texas Artist Laurie Pace

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Blue Moon Wolf in Progress  16 x 16 inches Oil on Canvas.  So I had this 16 x 16 canvas in the studio... just hanging out from the lake. It was covered with some texturing with paper and lots of acrylic paint wiped here and there... and then just left to wait. It has been waiting 12 months and I finally chose it for this painting. Watch the progress today and tomorrow as I take something pretty questionable and see where I can take it.  Name Blue Moon Wolf after the Blue Moon from last night. Terry got me outside to see it. Unbelievable. It is also unbelievable when you take your life, battered and bruised, and find the joy and life that is hidden deep inside of you. Why we choose to carry so much pain and so many burdens is beyond comprehension. Choose to find God's light inside of you. Take the best of who you are and nurture it to grow with Him.  By day the Lord

Winter White Wolf Contemporary Wildlife Palette Knife Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Winter White Wolf  24 x 30 inches Oil on Canvas.    Winter White Wolf is at  Mirada Fine Art  in Denver.  Steve Sonnen can tell you more about this incredible Wolf painting, thick with layers of color and paint.  Mirada has a broad collection of  Laurie Pace’s  signature equine paintings. I started watching some older shows on Netflix because there really is not much on all the cable we pay for that is not full of gun shooting, murder, vampires, and movies filled with panic and bad things happening.   I thought I was safe as I watched reruns of Ally McBeal and Brothers and Sisters. I really like Calista Flockhart and Rob Lowe. I have ordered Rob's latest book to enjoy on upcoming rainy days. I was doing well until I got to the end of Season Three on Brothers and Sisters and Rob's character, probably cast to be about 40, has a heart attack. Just watching his acting with the head

Wolves of Snake River in Progress By Texas Artist Laurie Pace    32 x 40 inches Oil on Canvas   This is a commissioned wolf painting of my signature pull done with wolves instead of horses. Most of these paintings are sold through RareGalleryJacksonHole.com May 18, 2012 The tree is falling.  When we moved here two years ago in the early spring, we did not realize the largest oak tree at the top of our hill overlooking the lake was deceased. Two months later we were devastated to know we had to remove the tree. Terry put it off for two years but this spring the huge limbs began crashing down to the earth below with loud echoes through the forest and a tremble to the ground.  He readied the chain saw this spring and wisely knew it was more than one man could handle. There is a crew of men coming today to begin taking down this tree. Tw

Most of these paintings are sold through RareGalleryJacksonHole.com Why must we live behind a mask?  Why is it easy to talk about others or turn a cold shoulder? Why is it impossible to look into a mirror and see ourselves as we really are, as people see us?   More important, how does God see you?   Behind our mask we hide the deepest hurts of our souls and earthly lives. Our shame compiled and fertilized over the years till it grows wildly and fills us with fear.  The fear manifests itself in belittling others to make them feel less and trying desperately to make us feel more. Can we love and believe in others for the good; to accept another human being for ex

Wolf Painting by A Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Wolf Painting Progression I continued painting yesterday...and took pictures as I went. The painting has changed quite a bit.  The gallery wanted brown and not white, so this tracks the intensity of painting with the progression shots.  Nothing is done until I feel the entire painting has reached a certain point and I have captured what spirit I am looking for in this wolf painting. It is not done yet, Color overlays must change and shapes have to be adjusted.     ©Laurie Pace    Graphics One Design 1998-2012  Contact me for your own commissioned painting or to purchase this piece: Laurie      Change "Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending."  Maria Robinson They reported on the news as we are ending this month that it was nicknamed the month of Junuary... instead of January.  Very little snow in the USA and very little cold weather.  It certainly reminds us of last summer and temperatures

Wolf Painting in progress So being away.. I realize the nose is not right... I will be working on that today. ©Laurie Pace    Graphics One Design 1998-2012 Contact me for your own commissioned painting or to purchase this piece: Laurie      Claiming God's Good Plans After a week of travel we were so happy to be home in our own bed last night.   For some reason my Dad's words are stuck in my head right now.  He always encouraged us (the siblings) to believe in ourselves; to write down our goals; to cross them out as we achieved them. Heck I remember at age 17 he gave me one of those pocket books about achieving the most you can from life. He was way before his times. This was Lady L last year... she has on her bakers hat and is working diligently in her own little kitchen.  This trip to her house she has a new kitchen... got it from Santa.  She served me special tea made with watermelon and ice cream.  Her imagination races with ideas and

They are vulnerable to so many harmful things around them that having a 'visual' on them is a necessity to ensure their safety. Many moms with young ones are near crazy by the end of the day trying to keep up with the busyness of their children. God keeps the same watchful eye through the Spirit placed within us. As adults our lives are busy. Yet no matter what we are never alone. His spirit abides with us at all times, the watchful parent keeping a visual over us.     Knowing God is a partner in life with us each day, makes that day livable.  We are often pulled into rifts and problems; dealing with them depends on our trust in Him that we stay current in the moment with our ey

Only Eyes for You in Progress, wolf Painting by A Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Only Eyes for You in Progress This is a new wolf painting in progress.  I still am working on the Journey tightening it up but I started this yesterday. ©Laurie Pace    Graphics One Design 1998-2012  Contact me for your own commissioned painting or to purchase this piece: Laurie      Be Still Yesterday in church Pastor Jack had us starting out singing an old favorite... How Great Thou Art.  "O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder, Consider all the World thy hand hath made." He is all around us. In the quiet of a sunset, or the gentle rain, or in the early morning dew, our God is our constant. Be still where ever you are as you read this and know His hand made and provided all around you. "I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy Power throughout the universe displayed." Jack spoke about God calling to us and all the many excuses we come up with not to listen or follow His direction. If we are burdened by life and it
