 Early Sunflowers
SOLD. 11 x 14  Oils on Canvas by Laurie Pace  


I cannot believe it has been 13 years since I painted this sunflower painting. By far it is one of my favorites. The purples contrast the yellows and sing a joyful sound as they blend together. You can actually feel the wind here in Texas, blowing through!

There is much happening on social media as well as it is on Google Blogs.  I have now begun to pray about this blog and if I will even continue after 17 years on this platform.  I am just over 11,000 hits to hit 1.5 million visitors.    Canada is passing new laws, it is it's long awaited online harms legislation today.  You need to do your own research on this one... but my eyes are open and believe this is another nudge by God. They are going back and applying things that may have been written and stated years ago... and you will be held accountable for what you wrote or said.  I will be leaving FB with their changes for my business. I will maintain close friends and family contacts. I am closing Instagram and Twitter. I have not decided about LinkedIn.  

Artists are here to tell the raw story of life from the very beginning. They do this in their paintings and in their stories.  I have tried to touch base on some of the questionable things happening in the past ten years, but it is not safe to even talk about my faith.

If I continue to paint, I will post new pieces... I had hoped to stay to make 1.5 million hits, but right now I am in prayer over it and leaning more to not blogging. I will miss you all.

Follow the Spirit of the Paint... with Laurie Pace
“So may all your enemies perish, LORD! But may all who love you be like the sun when it rises in its strength.” Then the land had peace forty years." Judges 5:31

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 ...
