© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2026 Exhausted Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Some days leave us wonderfully exhausted—not because of work alone, but because they were filled with family, laughter, unexpected moments, and reminders of what really matters. This Sunday reminded me that success isn't measured by how much we accomplish, but by how deeply we love. Perhaps the richest days are the ones we never planned.

She had already begun seeing the world through an artist's eyes. Looking at her reminded me that children don't paint to impress anyone. They paint because they love to discover.

Sometimes the greatest lessons come from slowing down long enough to see the world through the eyes of a child once again.

Red Moon Rising and the Seasons of Grace © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2026 Red Moon Rising Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Several years ago, while living at the lake, I stood in my studio and watched the Red Moon rise across the water. I thought I was simply gathering inspiration for a painting. Looking back now, I believe God was quietly preparing my heart for seasons I had not yet imagined. Life moves through seasons. Childhood.  Marriage.  Family.   Career.   Loss. Healing.   Death.   Renewal.

"The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." — Proverbs 16:9 This past week something changed in my studio.   For the first time in a long while, I felt th...

There were Five © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2026 Sketch  by Laurie Pace   Where My Thoughts Wander... Every morning begins with Scripture, prayer, and a new day waiting to unfold. Yet, like so many of us, I can find my thoughts drifting toward tomorrow's worries instead of today's blessings. This week, a conversation with friends and a passage from an old devotional reminded me that God's answers often arrive quietly—not when we chase them, but while we faithfully live the day He has already given us. Sometimes the greatest peace comes when we stop searching for all the answers and simply trust the next step. Join me in my Studio Stories as I reflect on faith, creativity, and the quiet ways God guides us through ordinary days.
