Contemporary Horse Paintings Old Red by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Old Red 

24 x 24 inches Oil on Canvas. SOLD 

I bet you could spot this one... it is a favorite palettes. Painted this contemporary Horse during a severe thunderstorm with tornado warnings. The power was off but I worked by afternoon light and candles.  It sold pretty quick. It was highly textured underneath the layers of oils.

I feel that way sometimes... highly textured between the layers of life. Always watching for those 'tornado' warnings in life. God has that knack of curve balls and big winds.

Mid Morning Get Away

 Oil on Canvas. SOLD 

Pretty sure this was last year as well. 2012 was a busy year of painting. 
God has blessed me with this gift and it is something incredible each and every morning. This contemporary horse painting was filled with chunky paint that was knifed on. A bit different than my other pieces.

Thank Him for your gifts.

Contemporary Horse Paintings Journey by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Journey 

 Oil on Canvas. SOLD Commission 2012 

This was a beauty that went to live in Australia.  Sometimes I want to negotiate visiting rights with my paintings... and this one I would love to go visit.  This contemporary Horse painting began with a blue layer of acrylic paint and the overlay of oils came next.

We all need a good foundation in life to have a positive overlay of experiences.  Trust in God with all your heart and 
do not rely on your own insight.  
He is your foundation and Jesus is your cornerstone.

Contemporary Horse Paintings White Wind by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013

White Wind 

Oil on Canvas. SOLD 

As I was reposting some of the sold contemporary Horse paintings from 2012, I realized I use wind often in the names... not sure why this one was called White Wind as there does not appear to be movement of wind in the background.  Sounds like a repaint might be in store.

Are there times you would like to 'repaint' a situation or words you have spoken. I know I have regrets on several occasions.  I am pretty careful about not hurting people's feelings with hurtful words in anger, but there have been times that I just simply gave in to my frustration. It takes a lot to push me to that edge, but unfortunately I have not just fallen off but jumped off.  Apologies and forgiveness is the only route, but I have NO IDEA what to do when they are not accepted.

I pray for you that if you have miss-spoken that you will find it in your heart to ask for forgiveness and the person offended will be gracious enough to forgive and realize we are just human and sometimes we are all pushed to that point of hurt. 

Blessings.

Contemporary Horse Paintings Into the Light by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013

Into the Light 

 Oil on Canvas. SOLD at Mirada Fine Art Denver 

This one was a growing thought over many years. Painted once back in 2004 from a photo I had.. I revisited it with my knife. I painted it by brush the first time, pretty realistically in fact. It lives in South Dakota and is well loved. I hope this one that sold last year at Mirada is loving its new home as well.  Horses on the move, constant motion, sheer power and energy. Pushed by the wind, the breath of God.

Blessings.

Contemporary Horse Paintings Leap of Faith by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Leap of Faith

 Oil on Canvas. SOLD at Mirada Fine Art Denver

This is another painting that seemed to fly off the walls at Mirada, but look at the horse... this horse is flying off isn't it?

If you could 'fly off' where would you go? Take that Leap of Faith this week and go somewhere you have never been. Drop the fears, the what ifs, and the I am too busy... and do it.

Contemporary Horse Paintings Red Shoed Pony by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Red Shoed Pony  

 Oil on Canvas. SOLD at Mirada Fine Art

This is another contemporary Horse Painting done in my palette knife. Did you know I have a favorite knife size and 99% of the paintings I do, no matter what size they are, are done with my favorite knife?

Hubby keeps them clean if I forget to wipe them. With Oil it is pretty easy but if I am working in Acrylic... ugh, the paint clogs up on the knife fast.

Are there things clogging up in your life? You have the choice of clearing the pipes. Turn away from those things that stress you or bring you down. We all have people like that in our lives and we can be kind and empathetic, but there is a time and a place we firmly have to say no more.  That is actually being kind to the person as each of us have lessons to learn in life and until someone tells us NO, they will not 'get it'.  We tend to always think the world revolves around us.

Contemporary Horse Paintings Relationships by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013

Relationships 

22 x 28 inches Oil on Canvas. SOLD 

This was painted a year ago in June... and it sold last year too. I am moved by color and color is my passion and the knife is my tool in creating the contemporary horse paintings I paint in my studio.

I am still contemplating and painting away behind the scenes. I will be posting some small fun pieces again like last year but not 100 of them. 
I will start these piece on July 1st, so please stay tuned 
for more to come.   

God wants us to stay tuned as well. Do you even have your radio on? Rather are you listening for Him?  He is waiting for you.
Do you have a relationship with Him?

Contemporary Horse Paintings Appaloosa in the Wind at Mirada Fine Art by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Appaloosa in the Wind

24 x 30 inches Oil on Canvas. 
Mirada Fine Art Denver 

I am totally surprised this painting has not sold. If it does not, this baby is coming home to hang. It is by far one of my favorite pieces from 2012 and it was painted in December last year. This contemporary horse painting was knifed on in an explosion of color and design. It is the cover of my 2012 Painted Pony Book available on lulu.com with my other books from prior years. I am partial to this one.
Email Steve for details.


Blessings to you this day my friend. Share a smile and a hug with someone special and say I love you.

Loosing Direction 

30 x 40 inches Oil on Canvas. 

This contemporary horse painting resides at Mirada Fine Art in Denver. 

Heavy Knife action fills every nook and cranny of this palette knife painting.  It was a puzzle as it built slowly over about a week's period, but the end result was astonishing.

Crossing the County Line

30 x 40 inches Oil on Canvas. The White Dog Gallery

While I am 'on the water' I will be featuring some available work at some of the galleries. This one is a contemporary Horse Painting at the White Dog Gallery in Carbondale, Colorado.  Thick paint and lots of patterns create energy abounding with my wild palette knife approach.

Blues Contemporary Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013

Blues 

24 x 30 x 2 inches Oil on Canvas.
Needs a Home.

Buy Blues here.

We are slowly unpacking. Terry is painting room by room and only on room two right now, but no hurry....right?  Meanwhile I am slowly unpacking paintings and painting new ones and these BLUES need a home. This contemporary horse painting is incredible in person with thick paint and vivid colors.   This is a chance to pick up one of my pieces for a good price too.  I am in a thinking mode for my next pieces. Pam at Dutch Art has ask me for some Sailboats, so I may be on the water for awhile contemplating this.

Do you often complain about being tired? Do you often complain about being too heavy?  Do you often complain about being over stressed?

Do you do anything about any of it?  You alone are responsible for yourself. Make some changes in life. Simplify.
