Leap of Faith

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Leap of Faith Oil on Canvas  SOLD (Mirada Fine Art)   by Laurie Pace   Stunning colors in Leap of Faith Horse Painting!   Fast blog this morning... a painting and a verse from my heart. The day is already at 10 am. Many things to do this day and I have to focus on the needs right now.  I am painting.  Working on a commission... I decided not to really post it in progress as the buyer really keeps things personal.  Maybe as I finish it, but I do not know yet.  It is 36 x 36 inches of oils... and the next one will be 36 x 48 with knife and oils!   Isaiah 30:15  "This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it."    If I were going to comment... it would be to rest in the quietness and trust. Stop your brain fr...

The Rising Star

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 The Rising Star Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   The swipe of the palette knife and the movement of color in every painting I create, bring depth and desire and life onto the canvas.  The Rising Star exemplifies the depth of beauty be it large or small in size.   Psalm 147: 4 "He counts the stars and calls them by name."    I am in the midst of working on the 30 x 30 commission, so my blog has to be short. This one is by brush and not knife and the time is multiplied considerably to work the different areas.  "There is much on my heart this day as I work. I will be praying over friends, family and offering up a prayer for you as well. The heat in Texas is in full force and hubby is fighting loosing our trees and yard because of the water conservation. Make it a beautiful Thursday. Elle Shop other Available Artwork.  Sign up for ...

Movement of the Wind

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Movement of the Wind Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace  aka Elle Pace This is a smaller painting created with a palette knife  and left over paint from another canvas.  This is why the earth tones are rich with the colors that made it. Reminds me of the wild candy canes dancing before my eyes at Christmas with stripes and swirls.  I hope to paint as I finish this blog this morning.  We will see what God brings to my day! James 1:21 " Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you." James' writing has always been a heart tugger for me. It has brought healing in many ways.  He writes the raw truth and wants us each to trust in God.  Does this show up in your daily life?  We are all sinners, but those that trust God will turn from sin.  You can count on 'sin...

A Lifetime Relationship

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2023 Together   Available     This painting is filled, not just with color, but with texture, and layers of thick paint. I chose to start with one horse when I began, but I knew immediately there would be a second horse. When horses form a relationship, it is usually for life. A horse is intuitive with relationships with the humans in their lives, and I can only imagine how deep their feelings run for a companion horse. Enjoy the layers of color and overlays woven through the entire painting, while the slight abstraction keeps the edge of realism present.  Shop other Available Artwork.  Sign up for my quarterly newsletter and painting sales.

Thank you to the collector for adding this wild palette knife horse to her collection.  Where have I been? Well... how about a long story short?     I have been battling vertigo for two months. Seriously. But that has not stopped my Reels on FB and Instagram.  Last Friday, I broke my baby toe trying to dance down our front hall way in a hurry around the vacuum cleaner. I...
