The Painting: It reminds me of lemonade on a hot day...but is is 8 degrees outside. Hummm, what is wrong with this picture. Wishful thinking? Wonderful overlays and drips and a sturdy strong horse.

The Thought: I was reading Psalm 27 this morning. This is another Psalm written by David. It reminds me of something I need tacked inside my brain...when you have those unexpected panic attacks or someone is rage driving down the road and they cross your lane, or even when someone falls ill in your family. That is when you need Psalm 27.

"The Lord is my light and my salvation - whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life - of whom shall I be afraid. When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident." Psalm 27:1-3

David writes on that he asks one thing of the Lord, that he may dwell in the Lord's house all of his days.... to be able to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord in his heavens. David knows the Lord will keep him safe from his enemies and troubles...and David only seeks the Lord.

"My heart says of you, "Seek his face! Your face, Lord, I will seek." Psalm 27:9

I have to remind myself in the troubled times to simply trust and seek the Lord's face...seek His work, His peace and His grace to light my way. He is there to light your way too.

Whatever you are fighting in life, it is time to let it go. The Lord will lead you in a straight line away from the chaos. You have to be ready to let it all go. Are you fighting yourself?

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. This is available for purchase. Please click here to see pricing and painting.

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...
