Princess... right before your eyes... is it a dog, a child, a royal family member?

Commissioned Oil on Canvas  SOLD  by Laurie Pace  


Princess painting was a commissioned portrait painting for a client that has commissioned animals as well as their young daughter at the time. I loved painting this one! Painting children is true to capturing their energy in the process, definitely a challenge. Commission a painting today.

Philippians 3:10-11 "I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,  and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead."  

Been stuck on a phrase "Looking with the wrong eyes" in a book written by Julie Klassen, one of my favorite authors in Christian Historical Fiction. We always used to hear "Right in Front of your Eyes" but that is really different than her writing intention.  When you are looking at something or at a situation with the wrong eyes, it has a lot to do with interpretation.  Are you not grasping what is in front of you because you do not have the 'whole story' or the 'knowledge' needed to know what you are 'seeing'? Pardon the pun, but that was an 'eye opener' for me last night.  It is so important to take in a situation and not judge it quickly. It may be right in front of your eyes, but if you lack the facts around a situation you will see with the wrong eyes every time.  

How did you look at and read the Bible verse above? Look at it with the "right eyes" and allow it to speak to you. "I want to know Christ".   Elle

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 ...
