A Painting a Day

Morgan was over painting when I started this one...it almost turned into a street scene in the city but then I began to explore the colors and pushing the edge on the slides of contrast and the blends...and then FINALLY the horses began to appear. Usually they are out in the beginning as I pull, this time they emerged in the end....the over all effect is dazzling in person with the marigold exploding from behind!

Are you all ready for the holidaze??? I think I am in it. Still have some students today, but will be painting this morning to begin my work for my gallery show this next summer. You will get to see these as I paint as well over the next few months.

Merry Christmas to all!

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.

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 ...
