The Horse Painting: Double trouble today, but Morgan is painting and I promised to post his work. He truly is stronger every time he paints. I just finished up the 3 ft by 4 ft horse in vivid reds and greens for a home in West Texas with a very tall wall by a desk! It was fun painting this one and I still may touch up some areas along the way.

Here is a slide show of the process:



The Thought: Found out on Friday that I have TWO shows in New York in August. Also found out I need double the work. I have been painting non stop and will be today as well. Terry is busy working on the bathroom. I know we will not make it up for the shows with the bathroom still unfinished. I am hoping to escape to the lake for a few days. I will need it after this!

When playing the piano, you have to move from the clinical play of a piece to the emotional playing of a piece. The pattern of sound tells a story and the touch of the musician gives expression to the story. The music can softly life you to a high plateau and tease you with building arpeggios. Then suddenly the music can fall silent ....hesitant....quiet. WHAM...the next play of fingers across the notes sends you with eyes flying open and your heart beating fast.

A passionate player can take your mind on a soulful journey through a song. They know just the right second to transcend into quiet and explode into energy.

God is no different. Just think about your life. If you are like me I pray for plateaus of peace. I know they are short lived but it is a time to rest and regain your strength. (I am hopeful for the lake trip) God would like us to be in preparation with our gifts, ready to use them at His timing. Be ready to accomplish things in His name today.

Turn off your computer today, and your television. Be a participant in life.

I just got an email just before I clicked published and my art is the art for today on eBsq. This is for Monday as I know feedblitz sends this out a day late..so those of you on feedblitz will see it on Tuesday... my art was chosen for Monday. Click the picture to visit EBSQ.

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 ...
