Ocean View | German Shepherd Painting | Laurie Pace

 




Ocean View... 

Contemporary Dog Painting of German Shepherds by Laurie Pace

24 x 24 on Oil on Canvas with Palette Knife - Commission

These girls are heading to the west coast near San Francisco. I was so excited to paint my collector's pups... and to do it like I paint my wolf paintings. I actually did intense drawings of them first over three or four days and then drew them intricately on the canvas...but then once the knife starts, there is no telling the direction. One of those LET GO AND LET GOD. The beauty is in seeing it up close and far away because of all the piling on of paint and seeing hidden layers of color beneath different areas.

White Horse Morning, Summer Horse #21 | Laurie Pace | Contemporary Horse Paintings

 




White Horse Morning #21 Summer Horses... 

Contemporary Horse Painting by Laurie Pace

9 x 12 on Panel in Oil - SOLD

Shop Laurie's Daily Paintings

This was the summer of 100 paintings of 100 days back in 2012. I sold a painting every single day without blinking. I really need to think about doing that again! This was a favorite for me. Makes me want to grab that palette knife and slice into some paint.

The colors and the angles of the paint surrounding the horse all pull in different directions contrasting and complimenting. Adding the orange burst totally warmed up against those blues and greens! Bring on the color.

“Many nations will be joined with the LORD in that day and will become my people. I will live among you and you will know that the LORD Almighty has sent me to you." Zachariah 2:11

The Howling . Wolf Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

 

The Howling . Wolf Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

 My website:   Ellepace.com

Wow, it has been a long time since I posted on Daily Painters of Texas. Good to be back and sharing my art.  Probably been five years... but time to be invested again.

I invite you to stop by my website above to see all the changes in my art and my life. I miss being active with art shows and my clients right now... so I am back blogging here, as well as my Original Blog started back in 2006.  I have had over 1 million visitors to that blog.  

Enjoy your Wednesday today. Here in Texas ... north of Dallas Ft Worth, we woke to 67 degrees ( a short reprieve from last week of 106-110.) but temps are returning to full summer furnace heat by the weekend.  I will be painting and sharing more each day!

Blessings to you.  "For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last, just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.” Romans 1:17

The Beta, Contemporary Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

The Beta 
A Contemporary Horse Painting 
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size: 20 x 30  Oil on Canvas. Sold


Such discovery fun.  Creative play. Painting full of joy.  I could make hash tags on all of these:  #discoveryfun, #creativeplay, #paintingwithjoy,

The Beta is power and strength. The Beta has many things woven across it surface and joy literally bounces from side to side. Yes, I have said this often this week, A road traveled but once.... but I did do another one similar that was larger.... two in fact and they all turned out with different personalities.  Beta I believe sold from my Jackson Hole Gallery, The Rare Gallery.  Abstract Horse Painting FUN!



The unfolding of your words gives light;
    it gives understanding to the simple. Psalm 119:130

Summer Pony Mixed Media Horse Paintings by Laurie Pace



Summer Pony 
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:12 x 24  Mixed Media on Canvas. Sold


Mixed media several seasons ago.  This too was one of those Roads Once Traveled that you can never duplicate. With the difference mediums I used, there was a hope and a hesitancy as I watched to see how things would combine on the surface and if they would stand up to the final varnish.  I did not want to even sell this one, but it is sold and in a happy home.

Your word is a lamp for my feet,
    a light on my path.  Psalm 119:105

Rocky Mountain High, Abstract Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Rocky Mountain High
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:24 x 30   Oil on Canvas. Sold


Rocky Mountain High... John Denver singing in the background of course... and one of my unusual palettes of all earth tones sauced with a bit of dark red.  This abstract horse painting sold from Mirada Fine Art.

Layers of palette knife oils spread piling high and mixing together in natural formations. Sweet calm energy flows from this one, like that sweet time you take as you savor something good.

How sweet are your words to my taste,

    sweeter than honey to my mouth! Psalm 119:103

No 102 Five Red Flowers, Flower Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace



no 102 Five Red Flowers
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:30 x 30  Oil on Canvas.Sold


I have a deep love for roses. Pretty sure they are wrapped up in my soul along with my horses that I paint. Terry plants roses for me all the time and vases are filled throughout my house with new clippings for each new day. I have roses of every color and every scent. The bushes are chosen by the scent the roses bare. Hoping this day you will enjoy this abstract rose painting.

May your unfailing love be my comfort,
    according to your promise to your servant. Psalm 119:76

No 96 Early Sunflowers, Flower Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace



No 96 Early Sunflowers 
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:9 x 12  Oil on Canvas. Sold


Has to be one of my favorite paintings. Began with a solid black canvas... acrylic so it dried quickly. Then I sketched out my sunflowers randomly in white chalk and then went straight to my oil paints creating this dynamic sunflower painting. Small but powerful, it is sold, but again something to draw inspiration from. If you are a beginning artist I highly recommend this approach with trial and error. Black acrylic covers the canvas and then build your painting on top of it.  I shared a lesson last year on pumpkins on my website, starting in black and moving forward.


May your unfailing love come to me, Lord,
    your salvation, according to your promise; Psalm 119:41

No 200 Last Push Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace



no 200 Last Push  
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:30 x 30  Oil on Canvas. Sold


This was one of those discovery horse paintings. I was playing with the spray bottle and dripping paint and literally watching it run and the energy of this horse literally came to the front. It seemed like one of those moments in life that feels like it has transpired over 24 hours but it was actually only over two hours. It was a horse painting that left me feeling more creative and wanting to start again, but no matter what I could never capture this same feeling again. It is a road only traveled once.


I have sought your face with all my heart;

    be gracious to me according to your promise. Psalm 119:58

Hints of Picasso, Floral Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace



Hints of Picasso
  ©+Laurie Pace       Graphics One Design 2014

 Size:18 x 24  Oil on Canvas.SOLD


This is an older painting reposted but looking at it makes me want to paint something similar. This may inspire a painting this weekend.  The approach to the canvas on this floral painting was to create the background with layers of rubbed acrylic paint and then to block out the vase and flowers on top of the rubbed acrylic. The top painting is in oil and the finish is incredible as a mixed media painting.

Teach me, Lord, the way of your decrees,
    that I may follow it to the end. Psalm 119:33
