OUR TREES are coming! Our Trees are coming. I have been up early waiting for the tree man. He got lost. He was trying to come before morning traffic but was using a Ft Worth Mapsco and we are Denton County. Doesn't work! I really need to take pictures of the progress in the back, hummm, another blog? Eeek I don't think so, but maybe I will just to post pictures on of the changes in the house.

My cousin Bruce arrived safely from Boise Idaho. He is visiting here and then on to Washington DC to stay with my friend Niki. He does absolutely wonderful things with antique toasters and appliances and loves to redo OLD homes, not the huge ones but the old ones that were sold in total from like Sears etc. Did you know in the old days you could purchase HOUSE kits like that??? Pretty darn cool. He also can do regular old homes and has a flair for things like this. I didn't know him growing up at all. I remember his older brother, but not him. He is about four years younger than I am. Sorta cool looking over all family pics that he brought and seeing so many wonderful memories.

Focus on God's presence this morning...focus on the energy He sends and the abundance He provides for each of us in our lives. It may not be what YOU think it should be, but we are where we are and we have what we are suppose to have. Share what you have with others and know this is what Jesus would have done. Extend a hand to someone today and share that smile!

Grace,
Laurie

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

'Exhausted' 24 x 24  Oil on Canvas Contact me to purchase by check or paypal. Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
