The Painting:  A commission painting where the eye of the horse captured the soul of the entire piece:

The Thought:  Yesterday was a day of running and quiet and movies.  We did the traditional Target run and bought Tink clothes, my new summer paint clothes (Cheap t-shirts to fill with paint... at $6 a piece), a few magazine with flavors and colors and choices for the Mother of the Groom dresses, a CD for Mac, licorice for Terry and of course coffee from Starbucks.  Then off to Asel Art for Supplies.. egads $450 worth of paint and canvas.  Being an artist is very costly. 

Terry ran next door to buy some fresh hot ciabatta bread and olive oil garlic dipping sauce and we headed home to make homemade tomato mushroom garlic sauce over wheat angel hair.  After we stuffed ourselves,  Mac and I began painting this afternoon. She is working on a large project for a contest.  After arting all afternoon we watched 'The Time Traveler's Wife'.  Pretty cool movie!


Lots of red!  Her theme is "Open Your Heart" but her's is "It takes a lot of Heart".  You will see the final piece in the next few days.

Here are two she finished this week:


Blue Doxon


Red Chihuahua

God blesses us in the most unexpected ways when we are least expecting it.  May you find your treasure today in a Blessing from Him.

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”- Romans 15:13

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 ...
