In my videos you always see Terry's side of the work room. This is my side. This is the only chaotic room in the house, except the kitchen, which is being redone right now.


I did not paint yesterday. Didn't feel good. Not normal for me at all. But I spent the day cleaning out kitchen cabinets and rearranging for the installation of the granite. Terry continues to strip cabinets so his job will be complete. Yes I need to take pictures.

Stacey had a sonogram yesterday. She was having some leaking issues and they wanted to make sure all was good. New discovery...she is 29 weeks and the baby should be about 2.2 lbs in size. Well, Miss Lauren Gracen is already 3 lbs 8 ounces. Stacey still has 10 weeks to go and the baby will double the last four weeks....should we start a guessing game to size and weight? Maybe we should do the predict the day too.

Did you think about your heart's desires yesterday? I was almost afraid to go there as I begin thinking it through. The more I contemplated yesterday the more I realized to share something this intimately with God is very precious. It is traveling into a vulnerable place in your soul and your mind. None of us want to be hurt by thinking we are deserving and then being disappointed. You will find when you direct these thoughts and share them with Him, you will find a restful peace filling you and at the same moment a life empowering energy will follow resulting in joy. This deep relationship with Him provides you with a profound sense of fulfillment. Only He can provide this for you. Can you imagine all the anxiety draining out of you? No more chaos...just a deep sense of relaxation and peace.

We are all created with desires. Human nature of wanting all the time. Do we nurture the desires that serve us or do we turn our energy to direct our desires to serve Him? I cannot imagine living with out desiring the love of the Father in my life, knowing Him forever. I also desire to share this joy with others through my art, my writing and my life. The abundance of God's creation is unlimited.

Here is the last reading from Chapter 1 of Luke.




Peace, Joy and Abundance,

Laurie

"Because of God's tender mercy, the light from heaven is about to break upon us, to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, and to guide us to the path of Peace." Luke 1:78-79

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...
