WHIPPET IN FLIGHT
SOLD


Only four hours of sleep will lead to a long day at the easel. I have been up for an hour and am getting ready to paint. I will have to stay concentrated and not stray from what I have ahead.

I had a challenge from Anne Stark who raises Whippets in Ohio, to paint them. So you will see a new series of Whippets coming from my studio. They are majestic to watch running and are very similar to Greyhounds. Their swiftness is so close to the beauty of the horse running so I am excited about taking this on.

DASH Diet. That is what they have my Mother on, the DASH DIET. Daily Approaches to Stop Hypertension. It will lower blood pressure in 14 days. Wonderful suggestions and recipes to go with it. A perfect guide for changing your diet. After conferencing with the dietitian, they decided with the exception of some of her lunch choices (Soup) Mom eats very well. Last night I prepared Wild Alaskan Salmon flown in early in the morning fresh, with organic broccoli and summer squash. We ate on our new plates!





We have a DASH diet for our lives too. But it is called ACTS instead of DASH. Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication. This is all part of prayer and ties directly into our guide, the Bible. The Bible contains wonderful suggestions, stories and lessons for your life. ACT upon it and practice daily the ACTS of Prayer.

Off to paint and pray.

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 ...
