I Do Not Understand What I Am Looking At!


The Stare
6 x 6
Acrylic on Panel


This little girl had such a great expression as we drove around looking at all the beautiful Christmas decorations the other night.
 I just had to paint her, especially those eyes!
 I want to believe she was thinking, "What happened to these yards and houses? 
What is going on with all these colors, lights, strange looking frozen/plastic people sitting in the yard, big dogs with sticks on their heads, even a baby sleeping in a pile of  grass! 
 Oh my, what is going on! Something Exciting!
 My neighbors are even being nice to me!"

How do you explain Christmas to a little girl like her?
I can say it is a very special day, a birthday celebration for someone.
Maybe I will explain more in another post...


I have been away from this blog and have missed visiting but when Christmas is over I will share some of the paintings I have been commissioned to create for Christmas presents. I don't dare share now, Joey, the Original "Daily Dog", can't keep a secret!

This is an exciting time of year as we busy ourselves with extra activities.
I have been finishing up several large projects and planning for the new year. 
I hope all of you are able to take a moment and reflect on what this time of year means to you.
 For me, I am celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ.
 It is an event that has such profound meaning that I do not have room here to explain. 
If any of you want to know more about why I love this particular birthday celebration, please email me and we can visit about it.

I want to thank you for visiting! 
I hope to be posting again soon.

Taylor Cut Away by Laurie Pace Sold    Philippians 4:6 - "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."    I have not posted here often but will be stopping by. Seems like Texas Artist Barbara Haviland has kept this blog strong.  I will stand in solidarity with her and encourage our other AOT members to join in again.  This Blog was ranked #16 out of the top 80 blogs. My personal one was number #13 in rank.  Texas has some really great artists and I am blessed to be one of them. I know if you see this today, it is really REALLY cold here in Texas.  I am north of the Dallas Ft Worth Metroplex closer to Oklahoma and I am not leaving the house still today!! Stay safe in your journey of today. Praying for all of you that see this blog and read it.  May you be blessed with God's love and great mercy.  Laurie Pace aka Elle Pace WAOW, AOT, OPA Ellepace.com   W...
