Yesterday Billie and I made a huge dent cleaning out the garden room and unpacking crystal. She hung glass holders in the bar for the wine glasses to slip into and got those safely in place. Her skills are endless as she flawlessly whipped out ideas for the studio. I even have my HUGE drafting board in here now, as well as TP's two desks, and room to teach and bring in my tables. Unbelievable! I will take pictures soon. I am painting this morning and hopefully she will be up soon to paint with me. She has been wanting to paint all week and I am like, "I cannot paint with the house like this..." I always work before play and painting is a joyful play for me. We discussed styles and ideas for the direction of my art. As a gallery owner she always seems to be a step ahead on what is pulling directionally. I am eager to paint...so on with this blog. Eager to step ahead.

The boys didn't work much yesterday. They went to an orphanage/school and played Santa Claus. Wish I might have been a fly on the wall. They did return to work about two hours moving some furniture from storage to here. Makes me realize how much I have to throw out in my life! So much stuff cluttering the joy.

Prepare your life for the new year...I sit in amazement at my world every day. Terry's cousin's daughter, she is 30ish...gave birth about 10 days ago to a premature little girl, Santana Rose. Santana only weighed 10 ounces at birth. We received word last night she is over a pound and doing quite well. What a miracle. This is the season that we seem to be more aware of them than any other time of the year.

God's richest blessings!
All of mine are here, THANK YOU CHARLENE!!! YEAH cookies arrived!!!!!

" And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.”Luke 2:8-11

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 ...
