The Painting:  Such expression when I work in values on the color wheel that adjoin each other. There is power in these warm colors...can you feel it working in the painting?


The Thought:  I have a thought to give you to ponder... think right now of prosperity.  What really is prosperity?  There are times when you find yourself in a comfy couch or chair or even curled up in bed and you think for a second, "It can't get any better."

And of course there are times you are very uncomfortable and you squirm around trying to be still or to relax and you just can't.   You are seeking the comfortable feeling and you can't get there.

Sometimes I wonder if you can compare prosperity to this.  It is strictly point of view and not necessarily amount of money.  What is it you hope to find right now?  What will bring you prosperity? It is greater peace and strength, or is it financial only?  Do you want a change in your job or career?  Do you need more skills in your life to be prosperous? Are you missing challenge in your life? What exactly are you seeking?

I am thinking the Spirit is gently urging you to be the best or find the best for you. Turn to the Spirit, to God in prayer and seek His direction. Trust He will show you...because He will. He will provide the resources, the strength you need and the confidence you seek to complete it all. With this will come greater joy and prosperity. Along with the journey will come wisdom.

Hide and seek this is not...it is trust and believe.

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 Woman Figurative Oil Painting, Art Deco Painting, Art Abstract Painting, Women in Kitchen Oil Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

'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...
