Descent

9 x 12  Oil on Canvas  SOLD Pure Justus Contemporary Horse Painting
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Writing is utter solitude, the descent into the cold abyss of oneself.”  Franz Kafka

I almost shivered when I came across this quote about writing. "The cold abyss of oneself"... 

For me writing and art and music...the three gifts I have been graced with, are not about me, but about the celebration of the Father who chose them for me.  It is only through him that I can find my path through my work, be it writing, playing music or painting. Creating is for this artist, a powerful charge of the Holy Spirit within me coming out in words by mouth or through my hands on my guitar, piano or with my paint brushes or palette knives.  The words 'solitude, cold abyss, oneself' are totally foreign to me.  The moving of the powerful Holy Spirit is everything to me. 

A Celebration of Love... ARISING not descending. 

How do you feel when you use your gifts? 

1 Corinthians 13:4  "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud."

Sunlit Bowl

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Sunlit Bowl Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   A Painting of soft pink and white flowers   created in 2013 brings back memories of living at Lake Cypress Springs. I loved it there. It did not love me!  Mold was my downfall.  I was prolific at painting there with my studio looking over the waters of a large catfish pond and Lake Cypress Springs. The mold pushed us back to DRY Dallas.  God guides our path today.  Memories are flooding in with the morning sun.  Proverbs 4:18    “ The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.”  Today will be over 100 degrees but by Saturday the high is 79. Weather is the main talk these days. Remember I am in Texas.   We heard they may get snow in the Ohio River Valley. We are to see storms from the Pacific Hurricane coming our directio...
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...
