OUTPOST GATHERING
HORSES HORSES HORSES

30 X 40 Acrylic on Canvas

A Painting A Day

There's a unique shop in Pilot Point Texas that sells to the lovers of the horse... It is an Equine consignment store. The Owner contacted me this week, since Pilot Point is only about 40 miles from Justin...and I quickly painted up a few acrylics for their grand opening this weekend. This is the first one entitled the OUTPOST GATHERING....brilliant color contrast with Golden Acrylics. Always unique and very individual, each of my 'gathering' paintings generates conversation both between the horses within and the viewer watching. Terry and I drove up to Pilot Point yesterday afternoon taking back roads avoiding the interstate traffic. We crossed over the damn at Lake Ray Roberts...it was stunning. We enjoyed dinner at a fabulous Mexican Restaurant near the Consignment Store and headed home around five thirty and were gifted with a gorgeous sunset over the lake as we returned toward Justin.

Last night we watched GARDENS of the WORLD...or part of it until I fell asleep...with Audrey Hepburn narrating. She was so gracious and graceful as she aged. This had to be one of the last things she did. I will watch the rest today, but am inspired to paint roses...will have to see.

Hoping you all have a safe and enjoyable weekend.

Grace, Laurie

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 ...
