Slashing bolts of lightening are cut only by booming thunder shaking the windows. Sleep escapes me at this moment accompanied by a good sinus headache waiting for the cold front to push through today. No heat will be in the house for days again. Not much more comment from me as I am in shock facing another week from hell with cold house and trying to work. In shock that this is Tuesday and work could have started on this last Friday.

The past five days have been a total beat down for this family. We are traveling through uncharted territory and our faith to sustain us. It is from these times in our lives we are truly growing stronger. Many times in life our faith is tested. I am there right now. I want to ask why but know there will not be an answer. I want to ask for guidance and detour signs, but I know they may not appear. I remain confident that the Lord's hand is in our lives and he will provide for each of us as we walk this new path.

Grace,
Laurie

Hi Laurie, I am saddened to hear about your heat as I have been cold with heat the last two weeks over here outside Ft. Worth. I hope your gets fixed soon for you. I really just wanted to say how much I like today's horse. It looks like a real stretch from where you've been and has lots of excitement in it. Do some more! Thanks for sharing this one. Keep up the good cheer and paint the warmth around you.

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 Woman Figurative Oil Painting, Art Deco Painting, Art Abstract Painting, Women in Kitchen Oil Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

'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

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG  ON INSTAGRAM     @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace          “I love sleep. 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...
