Unfolding

Here in the studio... it is a might be slower than it was in 2022. In most of 2023, I was between home and Dallas with my Mom and most of you know she passed late last year.  We never know what the day will bring as it unfolds. This morning in my reading...  Ephesians 1:7 " In whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace." And from my Daily Streams " There is no way of learning faith except by trial. It is God’s school of faith, and it is far better for us to learn to trust God than to enjoy life." If you approach this day and each new day knowing God’s infinite wisdom and wealth is enough for each of us to bloom and grow, especially with his inexh

Numbers 6:24-26  The Lord Bless and keep you; then Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.” I had such fun doing this horse about 6 years ago.  I am still a bit under the weather and I may start trying out more things on my iPad.   Yesterday I was working in my Verse Mapping Journal . I found it on Facebook.  While I am not a fan of Facebook and all their ads, with this mapping journal,  I am learning more about the fullness of every verse in the Bible through the mapping process.  I was surprised to find websites that break each verse down and help you along the way.

This painting "Under Texas Stars" is one I totally forgot about having the deep blue backgrounds.  I painted this in 2014 and it sold immediately after I placed it on my website.  Texas is a wide open state with a few glitches called Dallas, Ft Worth, Austin, San Antonio, Houston etc.  Those big cities are so bright they often outshine the stars where it is nothing but city lights.  The night sky in Texas is incredible. The stars seem brighter and larger than anywhere despite being further south!   When we lived at the lake, I have shared often the peace of the night sky and NO airplanes overhead. "But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you wha

Purkey   This painting "Dancing in the Moonlight" lives in Florida. It was painted just before we moved out of Dallas for East Texas.  I love horses and I love watching them dance and play with each other. This horse is dancing with the night sky above him. His mane is whipping in several directions at the same time. Stretching his head high and then low... he enjoys the sounds and beauty of the night sky.  The Night Until we lived on the lake, I never saw the night sky like I did over those three years. We had lived out in the countr

Better Together... Horse Painting always makes it better!

I painted this for the youngest daughter of my dearest best friend in my life. Take the Netflix Series, Firefly Lane and start it with us being young moms with small children. Life was always better together and especially with Charlene and our kids. I cannot leave out MaryEllen Maddox. She was the dearest of our 'Nanny' members of our family. She was a student from Stephen F Austin State University and she helped with my children while I worked or had classes. My degree was finished but I wanted to teach and had to take some extra credits. MaryEllen was the best! We were all slightly crazy. Charlene and I loved to take off in her Suburban and go east on the country road they lived on, suddenly taking veering turns on to other smaller roads, till we found fl
