Final Stretch Horse Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace, Abstract Horse Paintings

Final Stretch

24 x 36 inches Oil on Canvas. In progress for South Hill Gallery, Lexington, KY.

Another in the Advantage Series Horse Paintings and another 10 tubes of paint. Not quite done but this one is closer than the one I posted two days ago. With the new studio I have room for multiple easels and paintings going at one time. I love the new space and the horse paintings are loving it too.

We had a friend from high school, Lee Small, who owns Lee Small Gallery, and she is an interior designer, come by last week and help with our home colors and some ideas as we get started on adjusting this home to 'us'. I am a bit surprised on some of the colors with the intensity and depth but I am game!

Lee's gallery has the work of some incredible artists. You might want to stop by her site.

Weathering the Storm in Progress by Texas Artist Laurie Pace, Abstract Horse Paintings

Weathering the Storm

30 x 30 inches Oil on Canvas. In Progress

This is about 8 hours in and still not sure of direction but I am loving the palette colors chosen for this horse painting. I began with the orange paint, then the soft turquoise, then the blues... after that came quinacridone golds, purples, lavender and brown pink.

The personality is beginning to develop.

Colors of Wind in Progress Horse painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Colors of Wind

24 x 36 inches Oil on Canvas. IN Progress

My studio is downstairs and my computer is upstairs... so progress shots are as good as it gets. This is in progress right now in the Advantage Series. Color is not good in the shot as we have had cloudy foggy days... watch for updates on Colors of the Wind Horse Painting.

Running in Color in Progress but almost done. Horse Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

Running in Color

32 x 48 inches Oil on Canvas. Mirada Fine Art

Not sure I am finished but this horse painting is a big one. Four feet in height and almost three feet wide. I went through 22 tubes of paint so that tells you how thick the pulls are. This is not photographed in great light so I may repost later this week as I finish it up. It is in the sit and watch mode.
