Transitions in life...wow. Change is by the minute and transitions occur in a blink of an eye or over a longer period of time. Depends on the Change and what is needed.   Sometimes with painting a transition is needed but normally I am working wet on wet.  This painting was not. It had a totally different identity last fall when it was painted. I had not really finished the painting and was scrambling to get things together for a show in Houston. 
Changing of Seasons © Laurie Pace 2015
I was working on Changing of Seasons and just sent it as it was because I was out of time. Davis and CO sent it back last week and I attacked it today for not just a transition but a full facelift and I love it!  Here is the original. My husband call them my heart horses with the heart chests. 
I prayed a bunch while working and reworking the surface. I bit of sanding and removal of thick pockets of paint.. and the carving began on it. 

So the moral of this painting is NEVER GIVE UP.  We have to continue growing and changing in life.  So essential and so important. Acknowledge God as our creator and know he has plans for all of us.

 Blessings, Laurie

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 ...
