Sunrise Run, Time for Real Commitment in Marriage

   © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2023 Sunrise Run Oil on Canvas by Laurie Pace Oh my... I wanted to call it Sunrise FUN!!!  This was painted in 2011 and it is sold. What a fun piece this was to paint! Just enough Orange in the background with yellows to balance the purple and the blues in this stunning horse painting.  Had hoped to have a new painting to share...maybe I can start it today or tomorrow.   COMMITMENT - NOT ABOUT YOU We just celebrated our 33rd wedding anniversary. Marriage is not for the faint of heart.  Marriage is work and marriage is commitment.  In the Bible Jesus speaks of a house built on sand and shaken by storms, while another house built on rocks, remained unmoved through the storms. What is yours based on?  Sand represents 'feelings' and Rock represents Commitment.   There is no real "I" in marriage. It is a small 'i'  Favorite Song: Walk through this World with Me...

Read Acts 2:43:  “A deep sense of awe came over them all, and all the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders.”  Tomorrow, if I remember... I will share a special piece of art I did back around 1998.  It keeps me in 'awe' thinking of the Lord God and how He is every faithful to us.  More on that tomorrow! With everything going on in our family, we missed up...

Storms in Life... with a beautiful spring painting of a pony in the storms! Artist Laurie Pace

This gorgeous horse painting was done in 2010, probably in March.  We moved to the lake in April and I did not paint for about four weeks! Strong in color, deep with values, and full of energy! What is unusual, it is painted with a brush and not a palette knife! Fun looking back in time!  “Never lose hope. Storms make people stronger and never last forever.” ― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart   Storms  The phone starts by giving me a loud warning "siren" and I know in Texas it means storms are moving in.
