I did find the final photo of the bubble Horses!   It originally went to a show at Mirada in Denver but traveled to California and sold from The La Jolla Gallery back four years ago.

Layers of color and overlays create the entire painting, keeping part of the realism and loosing it to abstract shapes throughout.  I always find the sooner I drop trying to control a painting's direction, the better it is.

Let's get one commissioned for you and your home!  The True Original Painted Ponies!


Deuteronomy 4:39-40
New King James Version

"Therefore know this day, and consider it in your heart, that the Lord Himself is God in heaven above and on the earth beneath; there is no other.  You shall therefore keep His statutes and His commandments which I command you today, that it may go well with you and with your children after you, and that you may prolong your days in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for all time."

It has been a rough month with vertigo coming on a second time.  I know why... after I thought I was good... I removed the 'sleep on a slanted pillow 60 degrees' for at least a few weeks." and found out...  two days was not enough. ðŸ˜‚

This Sunday has been blessed to be better. The past four weeks found me in a 'strange place' of quietness. There was nothing I could do to battle and rise up against it and force my way through, which is pretty normal for me. (thankful for a husband that took the best care of me!)

Sometimes we are pushed to that breaking point in life, but we do it to ourselves. Truly I have only control of a few things in life, but I used to try often to control other people and any situation I could grab hold of.  I grew up wanting to 'fix' everything for everyone.  Only God can do that. Silly me... waiting till this late in life to figure it out. I knew I had very little I could do but to be patient to make it through this month and the rest of my life.  Two days ago, I felt pretty low... I just wanted to have some improvement. I was not sleeping well... and sadness crept in. I stayed in prayer. Constant.

When I woke up this morning, I had enough energy and climb in the shower and washed my hair!!! YES!!  God is good.   

Remember there is no "other" than GOD in control.  If we keep His commandments, things will go good with us. We may have to go through those deep valleys but He is right next to us...  and He is also walking before us, helping us through to the next steps in our journey.  He knows what we each need, and there are times in our lives, He slows us down that we might stop and regroup our heart and our thoughts and get ourselves back on the right path, the one He has chosen for us, not the one we believe we must have. 

Remember being a kid?  We have a strong drive to do things our way and Mom and Dad have to throw on the brakes to curb our growing power of life? Seems to me the sooner we learn to not react with hateful words, challenging words, fists, ugliness and that mean determination to be the one on top... the "winner", we realize that we are actually the loser when we force ourselves on others.  

All the way through Deuteronomy, God  asks us to keep His statutes and His commandments. and if we do, we will find it will go well for us and for our children after us.  We must teach them His expectations.  We must learn to keep His statutes in our hearts, our homes and our lives.

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 ...
