Time to begin that holiday shopping!  This is my second most popular painting for prints.  Dancing in the Moonlight was painting in acrylic and painted by brush. Totally opposite of my knife and oils.  Beautiful earth tones are in the chosen palette. Feeling a bit blue at times with a back that is not cooperating. Something about being at the computer or on the phone too much sends the left s

I work on them in and out and noticed some had not been shared.  Note the pink in this contemporary horse painting. Not often do I have pink in my pieces but usually Lady L has been over visiting when pink appears.  Bold colors, bold strokes and a festive horse painting waiting to find his home! Intention is a word defined as a resolve or the determination to act in a certain way.  For me that seems 'controlling', but I know it is importan

There is a circular movement underlaying in this composition and a strong pull of blues across the top moving off the edge of the canvas. The two horses seem to be coming closer together as the weather turns from the heat leaving on the left side and

Horse 62 Merry Go Round UP      ©Laurie Pace 2014 Merry Go Round Up    © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2014  Size: 8 x 10  Oil on Canvas Board. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Available Paintings by Laurie Pace  Follow me on Facebook           Sign up for my monthly studio newsletter. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Merry Go Rounds bring back memories of country fairs and city amusement parks. Always a safe ride and one where you enjoy the beauty of the horses. Carefully choosing your favorite, you climb up and enjoy the ride. Each horse has a unique identity and one calls to your heart.   This painting is one of my signature painted ponies pulled with Holbein Oil Paints on a Canvas Board. It will require a frame to hang. This painting is part of my 2014  - 100 Horse Paintings.   They are a collectible afforda

I am not sure it will make the winter so we have to wait until Spring to know if it has to be replaced.  Both color and line bring the energy into this contemporary horse painting.  Strong colors and thick layering of paint. Won't be dry to ship until the end of September.  I am wondering if I will make all 100 small pieces this year. I paint these small paintings for collectors to buy and enjoy. They are

In the studio horses are gathering as I am back full time painting... or almost!  We have 100 plus temps that are to be falling into the mid nineties this coming weekend.  The long term forecast is for a rainy fall... WHERE IS THE RAIN??? Saving Grace was entitled so because of God's saving grace for each of us. So much turmoil in the world along with the turmoil in our everyday lives. It is only through His Saving Grace that make it through each minute, or i

That is why I am including it in my fun 100 horses this year.   Click here to see the painting and close ups.     It is a story teller and that is why it is entitled Traveling Home.  No matter where we go the constant of God is with us and the journey home. We are all on a journey from birth to death.  Hence came the name "Traveling Home".   Great peace have those who l
