Dance of The Veils Two
Contemporary Oil Painting of a Dancer by Laurie Justus Pace

18 x24 inches
Inquiries: Laurie



At last a short moment to blog. We didn't sleep much last night. Seems that a production company was inhabiting the rooms around us and they worked through the night. NO ONE answered at the desk, but believe me they heard from us this morning. I was in the hall at three a.m. begging them to please shut their doors and allow some of us to sleep.

We have had breakfast and are heading into town to walk a bit this morning. We are also changing rooms this morning...up to the third floor. Maybe we will sleep tonight. I hope we sleep somewhere soon....

We stopped by the gallery yesterday. Half of the work is hung. I will take pictures today when we stop in! More to come.

We continue to grasp tightly to the Lord and know we are where we are suppose to be and the journey is for a reason. In His time it will be known. I am so grateful to have my supportive loving husband to shore me up when I fall. Fall down the curb, fall asleep in the chair, fall to the demise of depression of wanting to go home. He always tells me at night after we have prayed and we are ready to fall asleep that he has my backside. I know God is in him and that is why he is with me. I could have never been married to a non believer. It is our faith and our constant prayers that we make each day.

Think today of those in your life that cover your backside...or shore you up when you want to fall over. Know that God is working through them to allow you to feel his love through another human...by touch. We are touched by God every second of our lives, but somehow we neglect to realize that. So I believe he often works through those around us for comfort. He is our Father.


Grace,
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 ...
