 The painting I just finished of the guitars was based on the guitars played by the Kings of Leon.  Took some research and then decisions as I painted, but the collector liked the composition of another piece that Morgan and I did together several years ago, so I worked toward that as I painted. Kings of Leon rock the Charts with Gibson and Epiphone.  

Here are some of my guitar pieces from 2004-2008
I have played guitar for over 45 years and taught it for 30 years.  I have a 1975 Alverez Classical,  a 2002 Taylor 914 E, and a 2007 Laravee.

2004-2006 I did a series of these in colors and sold about 8 of them at a music store in Dallas.

 2007  This is the composition that inspired Kings Of Leon Guitars and it was painted
by my son and I together for a buyer in Oklahoma.


 2007  A collection of Four

 2008  Three singles from a grouping of six.
 2008
 2008


 2008 for an album cover.



Another piece done and two more to finish for the holidays...and then I will begin a 5 ft by 5 ft commissioned piece...horses of course for a new collector in Arizona.  

Just a quick catch up. We worked in the yard yesterday all day. COLD weather hit last night and we knew we would not be back outside to do much for almost a week. We raked leaves, but did not burn them yet.  Terry clipped hedges and we cleaned up extra trash that seems to blow in from the lake. We hurried through baked chicken and wild brown rice to go to the Christmas Parade in downtown Mt Vernon. It was so much fun to see all the kids and how excited they were with the small local holiday parade.  It is a wonderful community.

Do you remember the writing lesson on what does it feel like to be a blade of grass and you hear the lawn mower coming?? Sue Kemnitz  wrote me back and sent an image of her work... I love it.  I liked what she wrote:

"We are best when in submission to our Lord, letting Him clip away what is unnecessary, or even cumbersome and a drag.  In joy, because we know the final result will be the image of Jesus as He trims , prunes, and then encourages and cheers us on   All in His love and goodness. Enjoy process."
She signs her email.... "ONLY BELIEVE" and how very true is that!



 New lesson will post in the next day or so!  I usually say... prepare for abundance... is it yours..but I will close with Sue's ONLY BELIEVE....

A Bit of Wonder Contemporary Horse Oil Daily Painting Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 x 30 x 2 inches of thick buttery oils! Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...

Arrival...Refrigerator?

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Arrival Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whtever you do, and he will establish your plans."   Worrisome times laced with prayers.   The world seems like a scary place lately. Praying for everyone affected by the last two hurricanes.  My adventures today were the result of a dead refrigerator. I have loved my Kitchen Aid refrigerator very much. The first one in the 'French Kitchen' look died at 13 months. Hubby wanted the same refrigerator. Well this one made it four years and a few months. I cannot believe appliances are not made to last longer...but wait, is that because they make more money if we have to replace it in 4-5 years?  You replace your mattress at least every 7 years... and your washer dryer, you might get 7 years out of those... The stoves seem to make it closer to 10 years. We are Lowe's customers, and Robert ...

The Marsh... of our lives? Walking with God.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 The Marsh 6 x 12 inches Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   I did two of these paintings about three years ago. They both sold immediately to a Florida Collector. Simple and elegant for a horse painting.  Ephesians 5:1-2 "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma."  One of the biggest challenges in walking with God is trusting Him and not trying to out think Him or to do everything your way. It never works.  The Apostle Paul wrote of his own struggles in Romans 7 .  Romans 7: 22-23 “ So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the ...
