Here is another stunning painting in Colorado! Visit Mirada Fine Art and talk with Steve Sonnen the owner. Mirada has a broad collection of Laurie Pace’s signature equine paintings.
The weather is finally a bit cooler from the 100 degree plus days... down to the low nineties. It will
not stay long, but we will enjoy it as it is. This weekend is more birthdays for us to celebrate. So studio time will not be had until Monday. I have been putting off a new painting for my youngest grandson, Mark Edward, who is about 5 months old now. I promised them a painting for his nursery and have had something in mind and will be starting on some sketches pretty soon. I will share my process as this will NOT be a contemporary piece, but an impressionistic painting that I hope he will have with him throughout his life.
Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely, who conduct their affairs with justice. Psalm 112:5
Greetings and thank you for visiting my blog. I have always loved oil paintings, and have felt a strong pull to explore this medium. As a lifelong admirer of Gauguin, Van Gogh, and Rousseau, my paintings generally display strong color, composition, and texture. I hope you will visit often, and comment (positive or negative) as the work evolves. I am thankful to have studied with gifted and talented teachers: Carol Marine, Qiang Huang, Kathleen dello Stritto, and Don Sahli. I have much to learn. I am constantly inspired and challenged by my fellow artists in the "Artists of Texas" group and the artists at my studio in Dallas. We paint and learn and laugh together, and the comraderie is a blessing. My paintings are for sale,(checks and credit cards via PayPal), please contact me via email: sharon@sharonhodgesfineart.com Thanks for your support.
