JAMBO ~ Abstract Horse Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace

30 x 30 inches
Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas

COMMISSION PIECE

SOLD





Jambo is a Canadian horse. I could tell from the pictures he has an attitude, but it seems to me although he is assertive in his mannerisms, he is loving and kind on the flip side. He is a powerful playful horse and I hope I captured it. His owner is as adventurous as his horse and I think they must be well matched. Had it not been Thanksgiving time and me in a move, I might have flown up to meet this horse before painting him.

Yes we ate much yesterday at Stacey's. She and Larry out did themselves and Morgan and Hillary helped in food prep arriving early in the morning. By the time I arrived everything was completed but Larry's roasted vegetables. Stacey made pies pies pies...yum. There were 16 of us there yesterday. Tom brought his contribution of bacon wrapped goodies that disappeared with in minutes of his arrival. In the midst of celebration Stacey tried, but failed to win me over to the idea of getting up at three this morning to go shop. Tempting as it was to feel young again and go do that, I said no. Instead I was up at four with a major headache!

With the celebration of Thanksgiving now behind us, we face the fast moving weeks that fly by till Christmas. I am already savoring these days because they are my favorite time of the year to view most folks in a better mood. Too bad they can't realize they can have this same mood year round by just applying the joy of the season daily instead of this one month a year. Divine Order is provided by God in our lives. We have this human flaw of trying to control everything, often throwing divine order into chaos. Chaos brings on dissatisfaction and unhappiness. Don't make it so hard in life. Let go and Let God bring in his Divine Order to your life and don't sweat the details. He will right he wrong, sooth the pain, and light the way.

Shalom,
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 ...
