Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

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

Horse Collage Fall 2013 

12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas. 

This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit.
The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint. 

This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting. This is available for purchase.

Right now it is in the 'Hanging out" mode while I study it over a week. Changes can always happen. The most important change is being back in the studio painting.  

When we are faced with problems and tough issues, we must believe that God has his way in place and we must trust. Believe me as I feel like this has lasted a very long time, since the second week of December in fact.   I sort of missed out on Christmas and New Years. But for whatever reason, I am home and not out and about among people right now.  I am going to take this week to slowly gain back strength and paint again.  Terry has been awesome keeping up with all the house keeping and the cooking.  In fact he is down there right now cooking as I am blogging.   

And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. 2 Kings 2:11

I took the time to hand paint some verses from 2 Kings 2 across the bottom of the painting. I will know they are there and it strengthens me to paint on with the spirit of the writing. 

With the second image I have begun to use my oils and my palette knife pulling patterns and colors throughout the contemporary horse painting. I miss working with my oils and knife. It is like icing a cake!

 And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so. 2 Kings 2:10

I sketched this on a canvas early fall. As I return to the studio, I pulled it out and put it on my easel. I picked up my bible and began to graze through the familiar words and my journey took me to 2 Kings and first paragraph in this chapter where Elijah has been told he will go to heaven in a whirlwind.  It reminded me of how we all will die one day and we do not ever know how or when. Only God knows.  So as I work on this painting, it will be inspired by this reading this morning.

The first layers are rubbed in with Acrylics sealing the canvas and preparing the under foundations of the painting. 

And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.  2 Kings 2:1

I have been down with Bronchitis for four weeks.  I am just now back in the studio. So many of the posts and horse paintings that have been up are available pieces. I promised new work soon.  This is pretty nasty stuff as it S L O W L Y begins to go away.  Stay home if you are sick. Do not share with others.

 The heart of the wise teaches his mouth, and adds learning to his lips.
Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.  Proverbs 16:23-24

It was hard to send this one to Alejandro for his San Angelo Gallery. This piece was hanging in my own collection here at home, but I promised him some paintings for the gallery and I sent it to him.  

Enjoy the close ups below:

How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
Isaiah 52:7
