"O send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling." Psalm 43:3


Spring continues with mild weather and lots of green springing up everywhere. The Dogwoods are in full blooms as are the Bradford Pear Trees. My little peach tree is really blooming.

Thursday I spent the day working on commission pieces and cleaning house. I still have a bit more on the two 16 x 20's that I am painting; they are desert flowers, like cactus flowers. Then it was cleaning house. Terry came home not feeling well again and immediately went to bed in a dark room. I worked on my website until eight and by nine was in bed reading. I am hoping he is better today at work. At least he seemed better this morning. Then the Baby arrived yesterday morning! See the slide show below and Terry took pictures of my swing!

Sharing of your time and your wisdom through your thoughts and actions is a good way to set the day. Each of us has a level of expertise and knowledge that we can readily share with others. Respect grows as small things impact our lives in large ways.

Jesus nurtured us all the way through, showing us the way. His quiet way of teaching touched life after life, family after family. Looking over the generations since, the numbers are astounding. Did you ever think about some of the things that you do and give to others? How wide spread does your expertise and sharing go in this life time and on to others in the future?

Are you leaving footprints?

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...
