Laurie Pace - Fine Artist

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Horse 10 Midnight  Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   The beauty of purples and blues sauced with a touch of red maroon, this small horse painting draws me in by the colors I pulled together with my palette knife. For me the salt and pepper that is used on food enhancing certain flavors... but I do not use salt and pepper! I love the taste of naked food with out the spices in most things. My hubby had to learn to adjust! This particular painting would be a strong super big vertical painting with a super large palette knife and lots of purple! 1 Samuel 2:6-7  “The LORD brings death and makes alive; he brings down to the grave and raises up.  The LORD sends poverty and wealth; he humbles and he exalts.   We are reminded through Samuel's words of God's sovereignty  and control over our lives. He is and always will be the ultimate authority to humble us or to elevate ...

As my knife goes into action with all the colors, it totally makes my heart sing. I should be doing that right now!!! Need to clean house... I only managed yesterday afternoon to cook for us and the dog!  Not sure about today. Spending time with Hubby outside this morning early, pinching off zinnia seeds and he was working on planting more of these seeds for additional flowers blooming.  Matthew 6:21 "For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." My treasure is the love of God first and realizing all He provides us in this lifetime journey on this earth.  You truly must go through trials to appreciate His deep love and comfort, His patience and His glory, and the gifts given to you...

Thinking I should maybe do some small paintings and put them up for sale like I did with these years ago. Maybe I can do that after all!   This is one of my wild things and it truly makes this artist smile ear to ear!!!  Acts 3:6 "Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” Several of my readings this morning had to do with giving of all you have in talent, in possessions, in teaching, in touching and reaching out to others... that my friends is serving our Lord with those talents, possessions, and prayers. All we do should be in God's name and for His Glory. There is much in my mind this morning...

The splash of sunlight takes you eye out of the painting.  There were small piece and so much fun to get up every morning and post the painting from the day before.  Psalm 103:11  "For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His love for those who fear Him."  Typical Summer weather has hit north Texas.  We had massive rains for the last four weeks and really nothing moving in this week but the full blast of Summer. The temp will be 91-94 but the feels like will be well over 100.  Terry will begin watering the trees with a probe. He has his hands full trying to work on beds in the heat outside. I will be doing the 10...

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 White Morning Horse SOLD  Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Nothing like hot Texas sun and a baseball game at 8 am this morning. .. This beautiful painting really did express what it felt like rising at 5:30 am to take care of animals and cook a pot of oatmeal before we left at 7am.  The game was a lot like the painting!!   Adventurous. Exciting! They won the first game and tied on the second game!! This wee 9 x 12 painting is a favorite for me. It literally sings with movement and color.  Commission your piece today.  Could you imagine this really really large on your walls?  WOW... I could!

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Summer Horse 18 2012 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Summer Horse 18 from back in 2012.    Each of these small horses were a good exercise of being at the easel each day and maybe doing two on Saturday.  I have continued on with the Bloom class with Nicholes Wilton and not loving yesterday's painting but learning from completing it.  New thoughts for today's painting .                                                                     Psalm 77: 11  "I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Summer Horse Painting 17 2012  Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   LOVING the Palette knife movement in Summer Horse Painting 17.    Truly this is totally inspiring me to start painting some tiny pieces again.    Isaiah 46: 9: "Remember the former things, those of long ago; I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like me." There is no other than our Almighty God. I could not get through a day or a night without Him. It has been a busy week... and lots of rain. We have a hot humid sunny day ahead.   I told Hubby he could not work in the yard.  Here in Texas you have to work early mornings before that sun really gets up mid morning sky.   I am continuing in my BLOOM class with Nicolas Wilton and thousands of others... and oh my ... I PAINTED a pink painting yesterday. That is probably a first.  Pink......
