Contemporary Art Palette Knife Oil Daily Paintings Horse by Laurie Justus Pace

I repainted the background, I think the thicker orange pops out the horses better.

Contact me to purchase. Laurie



I had this one hanging in the studio and decided it needed more orange paint so I attacked it again and am re-posting it. I have been busy with commission pieces I will start posting tomorrow. I can't wait to share them!

I am late posting as I was working on the Lakewood Series Book Submission this morning. I decided to combine some of my chapters. My word count is enough but my chapters were too many. Takes a while to go through 175 pages renumbering and retitling chapters with out confusing it all.

I am sure God feels that way when He is sorting through our individual chapters. We tend to be controlling and heading off in our own directions to do things. He has to take the time to untangle what we have done and create distractions in our lives to head us back onto the path He wants us on. I talk about that in my book submission that real life never is predictable.

To many of us it seems God is unpredictable, but I have since concluded that is false. God is forever in one place, one steady direction asking very simple direct things from us. We are the ones taking off in every direction tangling our lives up into a woven mess. I can picture the Holy Spirit within me laughing a lot and shaking his head in amazement at my incredible blunders every day. Stay the course steady and keep God in your focus. There won't be so much to untangle then.

Divine Order is a natural order that we all seem to miss in our lives. God is the only source of this divine order. Rise above your worries and concerns and know He will keep everything in balance.

Joy and Abundance,

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 ...
