Flashing back a few years to show what was compared to where I am in my work.

I may entertain revisiting these palette colors.

The Painting: Rough scrapes of color prepare the base of this painting. Overlays of acrylic then create the vision of the horse. This one was painted in 2007. I may try to do one this week that retains this sense but in my current style. It is important that an artist explore and continue to learn and grow with in their journey. It is also important to be original. A sense of style is unique to each of us that paint, and often through either workshops or straight copy imitation, we see pieces of our own work showing up in the internet in the works of others.

The Thought: I have to jump back to that old list today. I didn't look at it yesterday at all. Not even sure where I am on the list but I am positive it is time for a new list. Right?

This morning I opened up email from a local Dallasite asking about possible lessons. My brain was flying as I wrote him back this morning. Some of you already know this, some of you are not there yet, but as we grow older things begin to change in your mind without you even "working" on it. With the years comes a certain realization of priorities and what is important in life. Giving back has been a primary driving source in my life. God has given so richly to me in my lifetime to date. I have lived in countless places, met an abundance of people along the way, sharing and caring with moments at that time.... and moving on to the next place.

The world offers so much and most of us never open our eyes to see it. Many never offer their hands to help others or give of their time. What we find to be timeless is Love. Love is God's middle name. What we give in life with love it always comes back around. If you never give, do not be surprised when you find yourself alone in life. Maybe not alone physically, but alone emotionally.

I have to share that a great uncle passed on this weekend. He was the best example of a great man that walked his faith by word and example. Having mentors in your life like him that exemplify and show you the path setting a pace before you, equip you mentally for your journey. May God be with the Brown family today surrounding them in His Great Love.

Seek and you will find, but be careful in choosing what you seek.

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 ...
