Yeah... not my norm...but my style...still working things out on this one and running out of time. This week one day is national Bosses Day... October 16th. My son Morgan works at TD Ameritrade and while he would normally do this himself, he came to Mom to help. (yes he paints too)  He wanted to surprise his boss with a Bull.  I do longhorns all the time but never a 'bull' so I am not doing my signature Longhorn pull but am using the wild knife with lots of color.  

 I just shot images of it and brought it into photoshop and flipped it horizontally and can immediately see what needs to be done... Some of it is free, some still seems forced.  So this is what I will be working on today.  Boss will get it wet... very wet....or maybe just an image with it forthcoming. 

 Morgan has loved this past first year at TDA.  He is thankful for the opportunity to serve. He follows in the footsteps of my Dad being a financial planner and helping people with their needs for retirement and the future. He has done a great job with us.  We in turn are thankful and feel graced by God to have Morgan helping us.  I miss my Dad all the time, but Morgan has taken the lead with many things Dad once helped us with. 

 Every meal each day Terry and I say grace together and pray for those that need specific prayers in our family while giving thanks for our own gifts and blessings.  We realize that God is the source of everything in our lives from those personal gifts, to our family, our food...just everything.  Acknowledging Him and His blessings is so important to us and at the same time asking for His continual forgiveness. Appreciation from our heart, a blessing of gratitude makes everything each day even better.  We are blessed in every way. 
"He took bread and giving thanks to God in the presence of all, he broke it and began to eat."  Acts 27:35

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 ...
