Native Herd Sunrise

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Native Herd Sunrise Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Can you count them?  Pretty sure there are seven horses on this horizon. I usually work in odd numbers.  This painting sold from one of my galleries up in Park City, Utah.  I think it was painted in 2015 maybe?   When they leave for Galleries, I am not always good about marking the calendar!  What would you want on the horizon for a pack of horses? 1 Corinthians 16:13 "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong." Be strong and of great courage as Paul wrote  in his letter to church followers. It is the weekend ahead... and I would also say be on guard yet always stand firm in the Lord and your faith. He will provide exactly what you need.  A good friend told me you have to be strong and get outside of your comfort zone. As an artist, this is true. I have t...

Summer Horse 14

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Summer Horse 14  2012 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Caramel color is one of my favorites.  Summer Horse 14 should be named for that color.   Beginning to think this might be the time to paint some small pieces at yesterday prices just to get back to my palette knife. I want to stop painting oils, but acrylics just do not carry that buttery essence very long before they gum up.  1 Chronicles 16:11-12 "Seek the Lord,  Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced."   Not much extra time today with a busy schedule and I have been doing the Bloom class with Nicholas Wilton . on FB it is Art2Life . I am still seeking my path back to the easel. Joy is returning in small moments and laughter comes easier.  I have done two wild things in my first two sessions totally not me but they were FUN!  Have ...

Colors of the Sky

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Colors of Sky Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Colors of Sky, small 5 x 7 knife painting of a horse by Laurie Pace.   This was done during a push to do 100 horses in 100 days.  I sold them all one by one each day.  Psalm 103:17: But from everlasting to everlasting the LORD’s love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children’s children— I always stop and think whenever I see the words "FEAR THE LORD" ... why?  I worship and respect and fall down on my knees for Him. I sin daily and know that HE knows I sin daily. In that way I know I am responsible for what I do and say.  For an unbeliever who does not know God,  there could easily be the fear of the judgement of God and eternal death... a permanent separation from God.  For a believer, that fear is a reverence of our Lord God.  Hebrews 12: 28-29  w...

Out of the Mist

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Three out of the Mist Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Three out of the Mist is  an engaging horse painting in colors I rarely paint with.  I was unsure of putting it on my website for sale, but I did and I had it on Facebook and Instagram.  It sold in 24 hours and later the owner sent me a photo of it hanging. It was right at home. I could tie into the Verses below with the lead horse is the strong one leading the others!!! Romans 14:13 "T herefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother."   Romans 15:1  "Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of those without strength and not just please ourselves."  These two verses knit together. They are about being strong in faith, or weak in faith and growing, and those that are strong should never pass judgem...

Celebrating Night to Day

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Celebrating Night to Day Acrylic on Birch  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Celebrating Night to Day  a horse painting I LOVE but have never done this process again. I need to do one. This brought me joy to paint it!!!!  James 5:15  "and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. We must pray for others to be always be strong in faith and we all should pray when some one is worried, sick or stressed, or they have family members laid low with health. God answers all prayers if we are sincere and intent with the prayer that is needed.  His answer may not be always what we think it should be, but in truth it is the right answer and He has full control.   Our Life Group from church is amazing.  We have an on going text for all of us to praise and do p...

Into the Light

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Into The Light 2019 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Into the Light is a horse painting that ended up living at home in Austin. It was in a show at Mirada Fine Art in Denver, and after I brought it home I spiced it up a bit and it sold!  I think it was 30 x 40. Looks like the Texas skies we have had for the last two weeks of wicked dark blue clouds spinning storms and tornadoes in both Texas and Oklahoma and on to the east.  Mark 11:22 "And Jesus answered saying to them, “Have faith in God." A simple verse above and shared to Jesus' first disciples. It is now given to you through His word ... actually given to all Jesus' true followers till the end of the world. We are called to have steadfast faith in our Father. With faith comes full trust. When we are confronted with tests and temptations in life, we trust knowing God will fulfill all his declarations and pro...

You Raise Me Up Horse Painting by Elle Pace

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 You Raise Me Up Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   From the dark skies comes a horse leaping above me in the painting. The strength and movement of a horse amazes me, especially on what appears to be such thin legs (except those quarter horses!).  Painting horses has carried me through 25 years at the easel.  Mark 11: 24  Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for i prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.  Cloudy day yesterday and another one today. No sun, only clouds with storms Tuesday late and Wednesday.  Preparing for the week ahead and putting my calendar together so I do not miss a thing.     BTW...What would you ask for in prayer?  Elle Shop other Available Artwork.  Sign up for my quarterly newsletter and painting sales.
