The Painting: In the beginning there was color... and I began many years ago with impressionism edging on realism. This was painted with only five colors on my palette and I was amazed by the poetry that emerged as it came together. I just finished it last night.  Holbein Duo Oils on Linen Canvas. Contact me for more impressionism!

The Painting:  This one has 15 layers of paint... no joke on that one.  To get the continued softer translucent affect it required more than the normal... and it is mystifying in person when you look at it. I am not sure the camera was able to capture the thickness or the light weaving through out the composition.  Holbein Duo Oils of course on Canvas.

The Painting:  Rough scrapes of color prepare the base of this painting. Overlays of acrylic then create the vision of the horse. This one was painted in 2007.  I may try to do one this week that retains this sense but in my current style.  It is important that an artist explore and continue to learn and grow with in their journey.  It is also important to be original.  A sense of style is unique to each of us that paint, and often through either workshops or straight copy imitation, we see pieces of our own work showing up in the internet in the works of others.

The Painting: Playing off complimentary colors of blue and orange, the strength of this painting is remarkable in person. With my traditionally heavy oils without Impasto, the texture feel of the horse makes him come alive.

'Observing' Horse Equine Art Oil Painting by Laurie Pace

'Observing'

30 x 30 inches

Oil on Canvas

Contact me to purchase: Laurie

The Painting:  This was a rough ride of not doing what I wanted the painting to do.  Two full scrapings and I finally let the spirit find it's way through and this is what resulted. This is a strong painting and the images are literally carved into the oils.

 

 

The Thought:   There was a great thought here and it disappeared...how I do not know and time I am short of time today to rewrite an hour's worth of work!  I do not want to try and recreate it in short order, so I simply leave you with a prayer for grace today.  Love like you have never loved before.  Take in sights you have missed everyday and give thanks to Him who created it all.  Be blessed to be a blessing.

The Painting:  I am back on tiny canvas doing pieces for an upcoming show at the Dutch Art Gallery.  It will be the first show of the Artists of Texas aka Daily Painters of Texas.  This is Holbein Duo Oils on panel board.  These are so easy to slip into a frame to hang.  A perfect size to begin to collect.
