UP EARLY and I intend to work on books today. I might work on one painting though... at least get into a little paint this morning. I was suppose to go shopping with Stacey but she canceled out last night. SO a work day it will be for me.

This is Saturday, some of you are off from "work" and some of you like me "work" all the time. Some like my hubby are at "work" today. No matter what you are doing today, do it for the Lord.

God has a purpose for each of us. If we use those gift, talents and abilities that God gives us and use them in our lives or our professions it is through this use we are fulfilling His Sovereign purpose for us. He calls us to our individual work to give direction to our creativity. If your greatest desire is to use your gifts in his name then you will find success. Hard work will not necessarily provide success. I guess you have to stop and define what you think is Success....I think for me I would like to find Peace and Balance...that for me is Success.

I am honored with my gifts and I wish to honor Him for creating these gifts to be a part of my life. I will delightfully follow my passion and give honor and thanks to Him.

"Work" away today my friends!

Grace,
Laurie

Colossians 3:23 - 24 "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving."

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' 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

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...
