A Painting A Day

SOLD

GOOD THURSDAY MORNING!

I am preparing to EXIT the studio. Today is teaching day and I want to clean house. We are expecting storms later but the floors are pretty bad from the dogs. We took them both to be groomed this week, so they are clean, but the floors...NOT.

I think I need a break from painting. I worked on some flowers this morning which I did list on artbyus.com. If you have never looked for paintings there, it is an awesome place to list because the Togels that own the site do not presently keep any percentage of your sale...this is good for the artist. It is also good for buyers to shop there and find good art. I noticed today several new outstanding artists listing on ABU.

Today in class I am still working out the lesson. We were doing mixed media...I am between that and doing a wet watercolor and using salt. It is such a neat effect to watch the salt pull the water in the composition. Have to see...will think while I clean.

Tomorrow I may not post till late. I am considering a trip to Dallas to visit my parents. Mom is picking up her new harp made by Denny down in Australia...I cannot wait to get my fingers on it! I love mine. I play daily, usually once in the morning and right before I go to bed. It is very relaxing.

I feel change coming on in my being...not sure if it is external change with in the community or our outside lives, or change for us personally. It can only be described as ripples with in and knowing there is something originating the ripples. It is at this time I begin really doubling up on my meditation and prayer, knowing the Lord has it all in control, as I seek his peace with in.

Grace to you all,
Laurie

“In all this I have given you an example that by such work we must support the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus, for he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”—Acts 20:35

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 ...
