Click here to seek close ups or to purchase the painting.   This is the last painting I started at the workshop but completed in my home studio.  I realized how much I missed my painted pony pulls while I was demonstrating.  This one has incredible colors that really do not show well on the computer screen. It is powerful and direct and with a dedicated memory to a dear friend. Her home overlooked the Occoquan River in Woodbridge Virginia. A beautiful home that hosted many wonderful events with her support community for Sunrise children with Tourette Syndrome.   Hard to count ALL the ponies in this one, so pay attention as you do! I seek you with all my heart;  do not let me stray from your commands.  I have hidden your word in my heart  that I might not sin against you.  Psalm 119:10-11 Laurie Pace A Texas Artist

I love the connectivity of this painting with the flow of line and movement, like the earth continually turning and the horses standing watching the sunrise and the moonrise... two together at the raising.  This is a pretty unique contemporary Abstract Horse Painting.   " The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God— children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God."    John 1:9-13 Laurie Pace A Texas

This was painted at my workshop last weekend using left overs from one artist's palette.  This is always a challenge to me to scoop up the left overs and see what I can do with it. I absolutely love the painting that came out of it... strong horse painting, so I named it Strength of Day. I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart;     I will tell of all your wonderful deeds. I will be glad and rejoice in you;     I will sing the praises of your name, O Most High.

Dear friends,  do not believe every spirit,  but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.   This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh  is from God,   but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist,  wh

I flipped the canvas around several times before I knew where I was with this contemporary horse painting. Click Here to purchase if still available. Do not love the world or anything in the world.  If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them.   For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh,  the lust of the eyes,  and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world.   The world and its desires pass away,  but whoever does the will of God  lives forever.  1 John 2:15-17 Laurie Pace A Texas Artist Pace Studio  Graphics One Design

Then I mounted the blues and turquoise next.  There was actually a small horse running on here and it did not carry the strength I was after, so it became this horse... In a hurry to arrive. Stretching and Reaching out to arrive. Click here to purchase this horse painting if available . Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!   Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.     Do not be anxious about anything,  but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.   And the peace of God,  which transcends all understanding,  will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Maybe people can be described by color as well. I know your mood varies, but what color are you as a person?  I have been a violet/purple most of my life, but recently have leaned into the deep dark rich reds. God is good filling us with the 'colors' we need for the day. Join together in following my example,  brothers and sisters, and just as you have us as a model, keep your eyes on those who live as we do.

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Summer Herd 2013  Racing the Night #11  8 x 10 inches Oil on Canvas.  So many of my little herd have sold already this summer, so I decided to do a few more.  This contemporary Horse Painting is number 11 in the summer herd series of 2013. The palette knife paint is a bit thicker than many of these little ones, but I got carried away. Notice how we do that in life? We get carried away with things.  We always are thinking about what would make us happy and things to please ourselves. We seem to forget that God knows what best would please us.  He know the secrets in our hearts and the desires we keep hidden from others. At the same time He probably chuckles because we really do not know what is best for us.  Just like a Dad with his precious child.  It is so easy as a parent to know what your child needs. They are hungry and they want a cookie… but you know they are hungry and they nee
