THE FIVE
Horse Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace

22 x 28 inches

Commissioned Painting SOLD


This enticing piece is going to live in Dubai and later travel on to Europe. With my departure for Jackson this morning, I painted yesterday afternoon and this morning to finish it up. A desire for five beauties in this piece, there is a marigold horse in the background along with a turquoise horse.

Morgan is here and the dogs are in DOG HEAVEN. He spoils them rotten. Terry is still asleep and I am finishing up my clean up here in the studio and closing down my stuff. I will travel with my baby Mac and will try to keep you abreast of the trip. I think we will only travel as far as Amarillo today and stay at the ASHMORE INN. This hotel is UNBELIEVABLE. They go above and beyond to make your stay perfect. I think that is why we stay here and never push on to Duhmus, Texas. Then tomorrow we will travel on to Denver and visit and stay with Uncle Charlie and Aunt Barbara. They live on the northwest side of Denver. It will make our exit on Thurs to drive up to Jackson a bit easier. My paintings will arrive this afternoon via Fed Ex. I will be waiting to hear from Hollee that all is in tack.

My mind is whirling with last minute things we have to do...so this is not one of my best blogs.
I want to share what I read from Neal Donald Walsch this week... He wrote of disappointment. do you ever think God doesn't know what he is doing? Do you get so disgusted with things around you and so tired that you believe God really doesn't know what he is doing? Neal shares that this is impossible. Life is happening perfectly at every moment. He is right. It is time to refocus yourself and know whatever is happening today feeds into tomorrow. Live for today and know what is happening in your life is for a purpose. Be patient. Trust in the Lord.

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 ...
