In Progress 

The contemporary horse painting above is in progress.  The destination is unknown, but I am taking my time and seeing where the Spirit of the Paint leads me.

“Hope Smiles from the threshold of the year to come,  Whispering 'it will be happier'...” Alfred Lord Tennyson 

Happy New Year from Golden Pond Studio ... from both myself and from Terry, the ultimate packer shipper and wonderful man that puts up with me.  We were up early for an intimate breakfast of pancakes and fresh fruits... and then I finished up some soup and butter beans for my mom with some fresh baked cornbread. It was fast trip in and of Dallas because our Puppy Annie is still under the weather from her infection she arrived home with. 

Friends from the Lake were the first before seven this morning to call and wish us a Happy New Year... and then just a few hours later, another call from my sweet friend Ann, also out near Lake Cypress Springs.  We really miss our friends from our life there. It was a short three years but it was packed with so much to do almost every weekend and throughout the week.  Terry and I discussed it and we have to step up the involvement this year.  

I really do not make New Years Resolutions...but I do think about where I need to broaden my life.  We eat healthy, we do not need to lose weight... but we do need more contact with friends and family.  I am also doing a prayer journal this year and will report as I go along if I can keep up with it.


"He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” Revelations 21:5

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 ...
