I finished this painting yesterday morning. It was a three day piece as I worked on it in stages as some had to dry before I went to the next one. Let me know what you think of it as it is a different approach to me. I will be exploring it further today with some other pieces.

Last night we were watching ELI STONE and something was said about the gift of Grace that God gives us. I wish my brain could quote the phrase but I cannot. Something like, Grace is a gift that God gives to us. It is His Grace that strengthens us.

Every day we face life filled with a range of experiences. It is important for us to keep God center in our lives and giving thanks as we live our life and journey through the day's happenings. God provides each of us with a measure of grace to face the day. Think of it that way. When you wake this morning and you read this blog think of the GIFT of GRACE that is granted to you. Open your arms and heart to receive it. This grace will strengthen you to the hardships of the day, enable you to be patient when you need to be, strengthen you to walk away from temptations you should not step into and most importantly God's grace delivers each of us from our sins through the death of his son.

My hairdresser has a plaque over her area by the big mirror and it says, " The will of God will never lead you where the Grace of God cannot keep you."
I recorded a quick song this morning... before a morning cup of tea. Took about five takes to get it where my voice did not crack. Usually when and IF I record it is early afternoon.... just know it was recorded to share GRACE today! (OH it may take up to 30 min before the video works as I just posted it on YouTube.)






His amazing Grace surrounds you today... walk in peace.

God's
Riches
At
Christ's
Expense

"And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work." 2 Corinthians 9:8

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.

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...
