 Wooing Him
16 x 20  Oils on Cradled Birch
 by Laurie Pace  

I wanted to post the final photo of the painting I just completed. Definitely stunning in person.  I know there is a heart that will be called to this one. It truly has a story with it.  Your story. 

As you know this horse painting began with a sketch on the birch, and then clear gesso and some sanding again.  Then it was time to paint with glazes that created the under layers that burn through ever so slightly.  It will get a good varnish once it is dry and ready! 

Psalm 119:76-77  "Please let your loving kindness be for my comfort, according to your word to your servant. Let your tender mercies come to me that I may live; for your law is my delight."

Have to reflect in this short blog to the words 'loving kindness'.  It truly is important to have the two words together. Do you really do a 'kindness' without having emotion behind it?  "stressed kindness"?  "impatient kindness"?  For me a Kindness is a 'gift' you do for someone. That someone could be a stranger or someone you know. Usually we do a 'kindness' from our heart more than our mind. I challenge you today to do something kind for someone and see if it comes from a place of love.

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...
