The Painting:  This is a second in the small series I am doing in preparation for the Daily Painters of Texas Art Show in Dallas.  This is a mini series to compliment a larger group. Oil on panel.

The Thought: Such a shock yesterday to finish a blog that took an hour to write and it disappeared. I decided God must not have liked the message...ya think?



Each new day brings a new opportunity for you to claim your own good. As you do this you must also affirm this to be true for those around you.  It is God's love and light that brings it to you.  The more you affirm this great goodness, the fuller your life will become.   
It almost reminds me of developing new habits.  When you want to change things in your life you have the power to make the changes.  The first week or two of Doing It The New Way it feels so strange; eventually you will 'OWN' it and it will be part of your life.  

God's good for you is right there. BELIEVE IT.  AFFIRM IT.  CLAIM IT.  GIVE THANKS FOR IT.
You can do this for others as well, you must have the power to believe first and an open heart to receive.

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...
