I’ll stay around here and play a guitar under your window every night and sing at the top of my voice and compromise you, so you’ll have to marry me to save your reputation.” ― Margaret Mitchell, Gone with the Wind When I painted this piece I did not read Margaret Mitchell's quote.... I would have laughed all the way through the painting.  My parents bought my first guitar wh...

There are days I begin to wonder when I feel like I am not in step with the world. Try as hard as I might that day, I cannot gain ground and often I lose it.  Laurie Pace on Guitar  When I pick up my guitar to play it, the first thing I do is check the tuning. It really throws everything off if one string is not in tune.  Same with life, if I am 'out of tune' with God and life itself, I cannot 'play'. You may be a student stu...

Cut Away Over the Moon by ©Laurie Pace 2014 Cut Away Over the Moon   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2014  Size:24 x 36  Oil on Canvas. Available Paintings by Laurie Pace  This contemporary abstract painting is of my Taylor guitar. It is one of the loves of my life.  Custom made for me to play, small and easy to manage if we travel... and my arms never tire of stroking and holding her. She is the inspiration of this painting. She has a 'cut away' at the top which for those of you that do not play guitar, it allows me to finger further on the neck of the guitar.   The "over the moon" part of the title is from the layers of music on the original surface.    This palette knife Guitar painting was NOT as easy thing yesterday. I was on my feet over five hours as it evolved several directions. I painted it more like my old pear paintings of days almost ten years ago... and tried to kee...

'King Guitars' 30 x 30 inches  Oil on Canvas Commissioned Christmas Painting SOLD  Contact me to commission a painting. Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website     Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards   The painting I just finished of the guitars was based on the guitars played by the Kings of Leon.   Took some research and then decisions as I painted, but the collector liked the composition of another piece that Morgan and I did together several years ago, so I worked toward that as I painted. Kings of Leon rock the Charts with Gibson and Epiphone.   Here are some of my guitar pieces from 2004-2008 I have played guitar for over 45 years and taught it for 30 years.  I have a 1975 Alverez Classical,  a 2002 Taylor 914 E, and a 2007 Laravee. 2004-2006 I did a series of these in colors and sold about 8 of them at a music store in Dallas.  2007  This i...
