You can even see the thick layers of white creating the edgy waves. This sail boat painting is coming together.

Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Mid Sunset Sail 24 x 24 inches Oil on Canvas.  The piling and pulling of paint continues as the background is worked in and over laid with different values. This sail boat painting keeps everything basic in structure and line plays a strong point in the composition.

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Sunset Journey 24 x 24 inches Oil on Canvas.  I began one of my commissions this week that is a sailboat. With the extra heavy layering of paints it almost becomes totally abstract with pure elements making up the composition of the sailboat painting.  The client is captain of her own boat up on the east coast and this is for her home to remind her of the beauty at sea.

Another Horse Appeared.... Read and see more below. He was found coming up along side.   © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace                                                 Graphics One Design 2013 Racing the Morning  28 x 42 inches Oil on Canvas.  I could not even sleep on this one. Something was missing but I could not place the hesitation that plagued me.   The camera was still not functioning and I spent four hours yesterday taking shots in various settings and finally in my non camera brain went to the internet to try and grasp what was happening.  Something called the ISO number was causing the grainy texture on every picture and it was driving me nuts.  I began to reset things and adjusted them. The suggested setting was 100 on the internet but I ended up at 800 I believe.  It was too...

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Continued Painting on Early Morning Race 28 x 42  inches Oil on Canvas.  I am making progress but not there yet. There is a strong intensity of colors building into something on the canvas but I have not arrived yet. Still am struggling with the Canon 7D. Seems like my limited knowledge of its power was messed with in the move. I cannot get clean clear images.  Will have to make a trip to the camera store or find someone nearby to help sort it out. I am hoping this painting will finish out and be one of the first at   The South Hill Gallery in Lexington, Kentucky . Music today was country... Taylor Swift and Lady Antebellum.

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Continued Painting on Early Morning Race 28 x 42 inches Oil on Canvas.  There will be some strong changes tomorrow. I have basically worked out the composition but the paint approach is too simplistic. Life is more complicated and created with layers of experience. Such will this painting.... layers of development and I will share each part of what seems to be a paintful journey! Thursday... it is almost the weekend. Still not unpacked. I may have to take two days off to finish doing that.  I am beginning sketches for another stretch of small paintings for the future that will be offered only on the blog. This are paintings that evolve into large paintings. While the sketches are good, I get too tight and involved and life just does not happen like that.  Time to break free and trust again in the spirit of the paint. Texas Artist Laurie Pa...

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Continued Painting on Early Morning Race 28 x 42 inches Oil on Canvas.  Pushing further into development today, I did get to spend as much time painting as I wanted to.  I am still trying to find my way with the spirit of each horse in the composition.  I have not decided if they are at a racetrack or where they are. The area that is structured on the right, blues and reds, almost look like the stands. Music in the studio today was Norah Jones... a favorite to paint by when I am trying to figure things out. May your Wednesday be filled with His peace.

     © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Early Morning Race 28 x 42 inches Oil on Canvas.  Have not a clue the direction this is going.  I cannot seem to get my camera in a good place to shot images with the light right either. This canvas was primed with a light wash of acrylic in blue and quinacridone orange in preparation for this horse painting. Right now it is more color placement and establishing composition and energy. Feels strong but with a painting, no different from life, it can take a total turn into a different direction. Music in the studio today was Air Supply, Darius Rucker and Ellis Paul. May your Tuesday be filled with His love. Meditate on the love in your life today...be it Love of our Heavenly Father or love that is from your friends and family. We are all blessed with Love. It is there for the acceptance.

I did do off some sketches this weekend to begin some new paintings.  It is a start and time to take the knife in hand and trust the energy and spirit of the paint in this next horse paintings.  After this one I will be starting a sailboat commission, which I am also eager to begin.  Doing those sketches as well.
