So the sketches continue and yes I just had to try a horse. and it was on the Pages 53 app.  It was fun.  I smiled when I did it and I am still smiling looking at it.  Even my SIL was moved by it when I shared it this week.  

 If you keep up with my blog you know I am not in search of joy, but trying to live joyfully each day, and most of the moments in the day.  Even Terry is in on board with this now. It must be rubbing off.  He came in late last night before bed and sat on the couch in the bedroom and said, "You know I really love you. I do not like to disagree about things any more.  Lets try to live joyfully together all the time."  The man melts my heart.  He is not like this all the time but the one thing that always drew me to him was his heart, his goodness and his genuine laughter and love for life. He does not worry about ANYTHING like I do.  Not sure who will pay the bills if I give it up... hummm, maybe one of our adult kids could do that. They are all geared to the  'worry' age. 

 So as I am playing with my art these days, I have had several 'ahah' moments. Thoughts of what to do on the canvas are tumbling through my head.  I know where I want to be but I also know that is NOT where I will end up.  As much as I try to control what I am doing on that canvas...I know it will NEVER be like I envision it.  So now is the time to buck up and be brave and just step up to the canvas and go for it.  I can accomplish whatever I set my heart to do with divine inspiration. The strength will be there and I must stay flexible during the journey to this vision.

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 ...
