A knifed painting with much action for attention and energy in the room! Thick creamy oils applied with the palette knife always brings interesting compositions!


Well, we closed on both houses yesterday. BUT we do not move for 10 days. It is the count down. I snapped a few more pictures when we were there on Monday. I hope you enjoy them. THIS is the furniture of the old owner...mine is not there yet....give me the 10 days please!

This is the loft in the Master bedroom. Terry told me he wanted to close it in for a
cedar closet but I say no because of the light that would be
lost coming in the windows in the loft.


This is standing in the entry hall looking south into the living room and dining room. The
glass doors on the left open up to the enclosed garden room. It is heated and
cooled. I will have an occasional easel in this garden room.

This is standing in the kitchen looking into the breakfast area which is off another patio.


This is standing in the third dining area with the garden room off of it.
In this area is a built in cabinet, very typical design of Frank Lloyd Wright. The
top of the cabinet has tiny tile in designs using red, yellow, blue and white
but the last owner painted it all turquoise. Terry says we can remove the
turquoise paint to restore the old tile.


This is where I will put the larger part of the studio.


Well, I am off to paint. I have two new commission pieces. One has to be done by Friday to dry. The collector has a Christmas party and wants the new piece in by then. The other is a young mom from Georgia that saw my work on Daily Painters and she wants a painting of her young daughter with one of their horses. She saw the other painting, Precious Moments, and send me her family shot wanting to surprise her husband for Christmas. I will be working on that today.

Daily Word talks about MOVING in the right direction today. I pray that might be a good sign for us as we undertake this move. It is an increase in financial output with the repairs ahead of us, so in faith we are stepping out. In life we must prepare for the blessings to come. The Lord wants to give us our hearts desire. I think sometimes we just don't know truly what that is. Your dreams can become realities. Take the first step and believe.

In His Light,

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 ...

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 ...
