Lost in Color

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Lost in Color Oil on Canvas  Available  by Laurie Pace   This painting is almost complete and soon  will be heading to Santa Fe to a new Gallery representing my work.  I will be sharing more in the next few weeks. Waiting for dry surfaces and pick up day by Art Delivery van is the 2nd of December. Then it will be on it's way to Santa Fe. How many horses can you see?   I have two more canvas sketched out and one already on the easel to start tomorrow morning.   💜💛💚💙 The last day of Indian Summer here in Texas. Tomorrow the cooler weather will arrive . We will at least be in the fifties during the day and in the low forties at night. I am ready for it and perfectly timed with Thanksgiving.   Much to be thankful for with this special American holiday.  We are thankful every day for waking up and walking with the Lord. It will not be our enti...

Falling for You

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Ocean View Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Ocean View was painted about four years ago as a commissioned piece of a family's two dogs.   Thanksgiving week is here.  I am working on preparing Canvas to be delivered to a new gallery in Santa Fe. Throw in creating some books for the gallery and working on WAOW things, along with painting and bill paying... I am busy most waking hours.  Last night we were treated to all night rain with rumbling thunder and dancing lightning adding to the rain concert. We had a on and off time to sleep through it all. It was noisy.   Matthew 10:20 "For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you." Busy busy the next few weeks! Have only purchased a few gifts for the grandchildren. We have decided we give them things all year long that Christmas is going to be toned down a bit.  ...

Between the Lines

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Close up from  "Between the Lines" Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   The close-up above is a small section of a much larger work—a   3 x 4 ft painting built with layers of thick Holbein oils . Created in the tradition of my   Painted Pony Pulls , this was the last large piece I painted for Mirada Fine Art’s special exhibition in   February 2023 . Below, you’ll find the full painting. You can also view it on the gallery’s website at   miradafineart.com The pulls in this piece are especially   bold, thick, and intensely layered . The palette knife has always been where my heart lies as an artist. There’s something mesmerizing about working with rich, buttery Holbein oils—mixing, carving, and layering them into   ¼- to ½-inch deep pulls   down the canvas. The result is both tactile and visually lush. These works drip with color, and I s...

After the Afternoon Rains

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 After the Afternoon Rains Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Treasures of Color!  The Painted Ponies in small size back a few years.  I imagine them on a Florida beach!  These are created with Pulls of paint of many colors.  "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the L ord  your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9 We have been working on the fireplace and still a bit more work to go. We were told we have a bad winter coming on.  I will wait and see.   They are predicting a winter like we had in 2013 and early 2014.  That was 13 inches of solid ice on all the roads. Deep snow on top of it.  Are you ready for winter?  I cannot believe Thanksgiving is upon us! I am not ready for that either. Are you? Elle Shop other Available Artwork.  Follow the...

Blue Range

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Blue Range Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   OCT MORNING... cool as we woke up this morning at six.  I found this painting in my archives and love the richness of the depth of colors playing their parts in the composition. I am spending more time at my job for Women Artists of The West than I am for painting and selling special ones like this on my website.  Proverbs 4:5  Get wisdom; get insight;  do not forget, and do not turn away from the words of my mouth.   Loved our LifeGroup this week. We are covering Chapters in Genesis.  We are in the midst of Jacob and Issac. I am using my Torah and Chumash with notes in it comparing things to our Christian versions! Have you ever read Liz Curtis Higg's books ?  go to the Book... She has great fictional Biblical books... as well as great non fiction books.  I am finishing up the two books about the story o...

Summer Horse 10

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Summer Horse 10 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Good morning. . . late to the studio but thought I would blog quickly! This is a painting from a few years ago. I chose to post it because I loved the placement of shapes throughout the piece and the exchange and anticipation of colors woven through the composition. It is sold but I am gearing up for painting the rest of this week.  A generous person will prosper;  whoever refreshes others will be refreshed. Proverbs 11:25 Refreshed... it is supposed to be fall and we are definitely still bordering 90s.  Hoping for a break in the next week.  Still having to water our trees and flowers because of drought and we still have to watch being outside because of Air Quality Alerts.  Share a hug and a smile today if you can. It will bring a smile if you do!  My husband leaned across the breakfast table...

Push Against the Wind

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Push Against the Wind 12 x 12 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   This is one of my favorites from a few years go.  How it cam out of me I am not sure...but I love it as much today as I did creating it.  It sold right away after I completed it.   I have been working at my easel last week and experimenting with approaching an older piece never finished. It is alway fun to do this as the base is on it and I can push any direction.  Are you starting to think about Christmas Gifts?  It is time.  I will try to do some small things in the next few weeks for affordable gift!  Proverbs 18:16 " A Gift opens the way and ushers the giver into the presence of the great."  Here is to the week ahead my friends. House is in turmoil as we made changes to go with another installer for our fireplace.  Hubby and I are both worn out.  I am in the midst of ...
