The Painting: An oldie. We are packing packing packing and the paints were packed today.

The Thought: I was reading something on Productivity. Is there productivity in your life? Every business is into profit and earnings. We constantly measure productivity even in our personal lives. How much equity has the house earned or lost in the past two years? How many 'A's" on the child's report card? How many things do we cross off our today list? Productivity is good to a point in our lives as it helps us evaluate our performance and achievements.

The bible defines it not only in terms of numbers but by relationships and our character. The most important thing is the bottom line of our character. Are you producing "good fruit" in your life? Could you do more to produce "good fruit"? Are you identified by others by the "good fruit" in your life?

What do you have to change in your life to produce "good fruit"? Our lives bear good fruit only when we stay connected to God. It is from Jesus death and in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in us that we are able to use our 'new nature' to produce "good fruit".

Our day has been productive as far as packing. We took out time through out the day to stop together and give thanks for our progress. We are a team, God, Terry and I and together as a team will make this journey.

May your joy come from the reflection in your heart as we begin the Holy weekend that marks the great joy of the Risen Christ.

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

© +Laurie Pace Graphics One Design 2019 Sleeping Cowboy Commissioned Painting for one of our oldest friends. 2004 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MY BLOG ON INSTAGRAM @lauriepaceblog Available Paintings by Laurie Pace “I love sleep. 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...
