Yes we are pretty far out here, but I love it.   We had lunch with my Dad and brother Bill yesterday and enjoyed catfish and hush puppies. For those of you from the north, hush puppies are little corn breads in spheres that are deep fried.  Yeah, it was all off of our diet... we didn't eat much. I ate one hush puppy and my fish

Well you would be as well if you were getting ready to turn age two.  Those Terrible Twos have set in on our precious Granddaughter. Stacey was more than a handful as a child and if she can expect 10 times more than she gave me... look out for one impatient stubborn little Tinkerbelle.  This was her first of whatever candy this is. Surprised me because Stacey and Larry are very careful what they give her to eat.   How is your patience?  Are you an easy 'waiter' or a nervous pacing &#

In Progress Cowboy Painting, Western Art Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace, Doing Good to All and do it with Heart

In Progress... Still not finished but will begin working on this one in the evenings. Contact me for Commission work. Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2011 My Blog My Website     Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards It was a computer day yesterday as I just about finished the new www.artistsoftexas.org site . Not every page is changed visually but all the meta descriptions are added and the artists that sent me information and new images got an overhaul on their bio page.  This took almost 10 days to get to this point but from here forward I can change out things little by little. Have you ever been confronted with a job that seemed endless?  How do you set your frame of mind for it?  Do you wallow around thinking, "I will never finish this, why should I even start it?" or does your mind go, "Okay, one step at a time here... and one day it will be done."  That is how I urge you to look at your life all the time. Do not

Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2011 My Blog My Website     Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards It was a beautiful sunrise yesterday.  Then the skies grew cloudy while we were in church and cold rain was falling in late afternoon.  We had hopes for a nice long walk yesterday but that did not happen. Jace came and painted with me for about two hours and we jammed on the guitars. He is doing so well and has such a nice voice when he sings. He is NOT your typical 15 almost 16 year old.  So it was a full Sunday with church, lessons and time with Terry.  LOTS of good food on our "eat more fresh veggies" diet.  Finally realized I can eat as much as I want to eat of the foods that are healthy... and when I do I do not crave the bad stuff, like red meat, bread etc.  As of today I have lost 18

Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2011   Click on Details below to seek the thick paint.   My Blog My Website   Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards Really enjoyed playing in the paint on this one.  Have no idea if it will even appeal to a heart or not, but it was an enjoyable journey of paint. I spent most of yesterday afternoon with wet feet (54 degrees outside) as we began power washing the deck the hot tub use to live on. This is going to take a bit of work.  Warmer weather would be better. I can see some use of having a power washer...windows, eaves, cars etc.  Father's Day is ahead of us. Stuck morning yesterday morning. I was up early working on the new www.artistsoftexas.org site. It is not uploaded yet and is about 10 days from the upload.  Began to get bur

Racing the Sun Across Horse Oil Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Pace, Sharing God's Love and do not forget Just Plain Sweet!

'Racing The Sun Across' 20 x 30  Oil on Canvas Available Contact me to purchase by check or paypal. Laurie  © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2011 Details:    My Blog My Website     Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards Sharing the love. What does it mean to you?  When God in His creative mode used His wisdom and power and love to create the universe, He did this for you and me. He wanted to share His love with someone.  As His mind began to expand with the thought of creating a being to love, He began His plan creating the moon, the sun, the stars and this world.  He carefully carved out every detail in each formation and creation. He made sure we had exactly what we needed to live and as He then created man, He created him in His own image....with a heart and mind to accept that love and be able to love back.  Open your heart to God today.  Give back some to Him who has given it all to you. Is there a friend or neighbor, a child, o

Laurie   © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2011 My Blog My Website   Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards It got really really cold again and we saw some light sleet late yesterday. Thank goodness today's high is in the forties!  Power is holding and for that I am grateful. I started this painting and worked on it most of yesterday. Had the heaters going in the studio and classical music playing.  The smells from the kitchen were extraordinary.  (Did I spell that right?) Terry was cooking while I was painting.  We dined on Salmon, baked potato and fresh carrots and mushrooms.  We spent the rest of the evening sprawled in front of the fire playing backgammon.  Bliss. The only thing that would have rounded it out would have been something from Stacey Beth's kitchen. (Just Plain Sweet) God is good and I am ever tha
