"So the power of God could be seen in him." John 9:3

As you can tell I have been adjusting things on the blog. I had noticed Jelaine's blog and loved her three column approach and when I wrote her, she sent me on to Sarah Trefny, who was kind enough to help me add my third column. What I still need to figure out, is how to adjust the type margins not to hit the edges... but I am way out of my knowledge area now. You will see adjustments as I play with it!


Yesterday was catch-up day. I had clients to meet with at lunch; infact Morgan and Kelly came too and hopefully both Morgan and I will be able to do some art work for this project. It is a Doctors Office of the future, so it is definitely pulling at my heart. Currently the practice is 30 years young and at this point totally built to serve medicaid patients in a hispanic area of Dallas. This doctor has kept his vision and his service to the Dallas community on target all the way. With his new clinic he will provide full services of OBGYN, Pediatrics, Family Practioner, in house Pharmacy, large x-ray area with CSCAN etc. etc. etc. If our involvement is blessed to continue with them, I will definitely share more. It is so unusual in this day and time to find folks that have dedicated their lives to help others with out worrying about what's in it for them. This husband and wife team is very dedicated to this community. That is why I chose my verse above to reflect this moment. God's power burns brightly in this doctor and his continual gift to serve and now to provide a new well-equiped facility for the practice. Obviously God has nurtured a vision within him to complete this goal. Through blind trust he is watching it all come to be.

It is an honor to participate with my art work. The power of the Lord is amazing.



Kelly and Morgan

They are cute together. They knew each other while growing up at St Paul United Church of Christ in Dallas. I do not think they had seen each other in 15 years and they caught up this past week. Friends are one of the best things we can have in life.

Stacey remains on bedrest and her best friend is flying in from Los Angelos tomorrow to stay for a week. She will help Stacey get Lauren's room ready and there is another shower next week. Natalie will return when Lauren arrives and will stay with Stacey for a few weeks to help out. DID I SAY YEAH?? Yes I did! My mother came with two of mine and stayed to help me for a week. I would not have made it otherwise.
Here are pictures from the shower last weekend:








I am off to paint! May He fill your every need.

Joy and Abundance,
Laurie

power you have used for us before." Psalm 68:28

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

   © +Laurie Pace         Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG  ON INSTAGRAM     @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace          “I love sleep. 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...
