This is a larger painting and I am taking it slowly with steps. Took two days to draw out and plan from an older sketch.  NOT actually in correct form. It was a loose sketch but I decided I wanted to go with it. Life and People are never perfect... it is the moment, the mind and and where you are in life.  I will post more as I work on it. This was two days in drawing and 2 days doing the first glazing layers. 

My Sketch

Thoughts for Today

My Biblical share today is from Countryside Bible Church from our Pastor, who is three weeks out of his heart stopping. He told us today only 5 percent of people that experience this survive.  God is not finished with him yet...for sure.  He led us to read Psalm 116.  As I read it with him I wondered why I had not read this Psalm enough to remember it was here. I am guessing you have not either. Blessings from our home to yours. 

PSALMS 116

     Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Death
I love the Lord, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy.
Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
The cords of death entangle me, the anguish of the grave came over me;
I was overcome by distress and sorrow. Then I called on the name of the Lord: "LORD, save me!;

The Lord is gracious and righteous; Our God is full of compassion.
The Lord protects the unwary; when I was brought low, he save me.
Return to your rest, my soul, for the Lord has been good to you.
For you, Lord, have delivered me from death, my eyes from tears and my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before the Lord in the land of the living.  

I trusted the in the Lord when I said,
"I am greatly afflicted"; 
In my alarm I said, "Everyone is a liar."
What shall I return to the Lord for all his goodness to me?
I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord. 
I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people. 
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful servants.

Truly I am your servant, Lord; I serve you just as my mother did;
you have freed me from my chains.
I will sacrifice a than offering to you and call on the name of the Lord. I will fulfill my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people, in the courts of the house of the Lord -in your midst, Jerusalem.
Praise the Lord.

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
