© Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2025 Three at the Watering Hole Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Short catch up for the weekend.   We had an older grand son with a birthday  and plans fill up today and Sunday. This is late for me to post on Saturday. We were at an Olympic Meet for Special Needs Children this morning watching one of our grandson's compete.  Great way to start the day! He came in third place out of a group... and he is only 12... the first and second place winners were 15 and 17.   Then is was lunch and of course Mexican Food!!    T his painting posted above is one of three in the Watering Hole series from several years ago.  They are all strong with reds! An artist tends to work on different palette colors through out the years of painting.  Matthew 28:20 "And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Tomorrow is church and I may paint tomo...

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Single Run Pony Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   This is one of the best expressions with my knife and thick paint piling high.   I say that because there is a before and after and I continue past where I was in this horse painting. You can see there is not any thing reaching out with colors except the movement of gold yellow on the top of the head into the neck. I love it when I see one with photos of before... NOPE... not done and the final painting above carrying through to add color.  Psalm 23:4 “Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”   This morning I am going with my daughter and granddaughter to watch our second oldest grandson compete in swimming for special olympics.  Hubby will stay here as we have Ecosafe coming to deal with the ants in the yard....

© Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2025 It's All Mine Oil on Canvas   SOLD   by Laurie Pace   FRIDAY!!!   Are you ready for the weekend?   I have spent the last week working pretty hard but unfortunately on the computer more than at the easel.  This contemporary horse painting was a small one with lots of thick layers of paint.  It is only an 8 x 10 inch painting, but the oil paint is very thick and full of ridges and depth. Hard to tell from the  photo.  I have a huge canvas to attack... for me to play on.  Isaiah 41:10 " So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." There are base layers of acrylic  paint and as you can see it is large.  I will be sketching this morning deciding what will grown upon this. I am feeling more vertical than horizontal. Als...

© Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2025 Starlight Run Oil on Canvas   SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Monday Afternoon...   Monday? I barely remember getting ready for bed last night. I was exhausted. It is late afternoon and I am struggling to stay awake. Hubby and I with the help of our oldest grandson have moved a lot of stuff.  Closing out a Storage facility... never again I hope!  Not ours either!!!   Lets talk about this painting. This one is a favorite of most of my collectors for the drama and the colors! I enjoyed painting it.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 IN FLIGHT Oil on Panel SOLD Aug 2025   by Laurie Pace   This incredibly energetic painting sold last night.   "IN FLIGHT" was woven into the fabric of left over paint from a large canvas that I scraped. These incredible pieces are rare in my studio and I love them even more when they leave to a new home. The Spirit of the Paint... my phrase since Dec of 1998, is truly the essence of my work. God leads me many different ways with my painting and it is an honor to me to have someone fall in love with it and have it arrive at their forever home.  2 Peter 1:3 "His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness." The temps are high in Texas... and the weekend always flys by.  Sundays are the best with church and Saturdays are filled with catching up house work and lawn care. Have a...

© Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2025 Rocky Buffalo Herd Afternoon Oil on Canvas  SOLD at Mirada Fine Art   by Laurie Pace   The Buffalo are loose... and on the run!   I should  never doubt the painting when it oozes out of me with my palette knife. Steve was having a summer show and I submitted this painting and it was gone quickly. I love my Buffalos!  Hoping you enjoy them too this HOT HOT HOT day in Texas.   Luke 1:49 "for the Mighty One has done great things for me— holy is his name."   It has been a solid five days reworking my website. If you have not been there in awhile, please go Ellepace.com  and let me know what you think.  I have run it through Chat GPT and adjusted what they found and I was tickled they truly supported and positively commented on everything but one thing. I adjusted that right away. Let me know what you think about it, especially before I annou...
