God has created  inside  each of us a full range of emotions to develop and use in our journey. Every experience we encounter fine tunes our emotions and we learn to respond to sad things, awesome things, loving things, joyful things, scary things etc. We have been given the gift of emotions and we can choose to live in joy and give 'joy' and 'love' to others each day. YOU and I can make a difference when we meet someone with a smile, a warm compliment, a pat on the ba

FLOWER PICKERS Child Contemporary Art Oil Painting By Laurie Justus Pace SOLD Sunday dawns and I truly hesitate not to get tangled in knots realizing what lies ahead for the day. I have eight paintings to pack, which follows Thursday's packing of 15 for the show in Jackson.... and I am working on two easels today. Only peace through the Lord will restore my calm. Yesterday Stacey and I went shopping. We were hunting some maternity clothes for her and I was looking for something to wear next Saturday night for the opening. I had discovered a store on the walks out at North Park.... PINTO RANCH , managed by Susan Campbell. It is a delightful store, filled with beautiful designer clothes for both men and women with that great western flair. They also carry hand made boots, hats and little surprises for the kids. I bought the new grandbaby TINK a full set of Soft Barn Animals. Yes it was an impulse buy. We continued on in search of maternity and finally found somethings to tide S
A Rose for Papa Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace 18 x 24 x 2 inches Inquiries Welcome: Laurie SOLD Thanks for Supporting Daily Painters. Mom is sleeping soundly so I have no TV on and no music on. I am so behind on painting it does no good to even think about it right now. Changes in our family are occurring faster than I can blink my eye. She had fever again yesterday so on Friday we return to the doctor. My youngest brother is out of town with his job and my oldest brother is facing a trip to Houston to attend the funeral of one of his oldest friends. Change is a constant. Did you get that message yesterday? Wanted to make sure you were reading. This was one of the days I did not want to get up. I wanted to pull the blanket back over my shoulders and nestle down for two more hours of sleep, maybe three. But I knew if I didn't get up and work I might as well shut down the studio. I cannot hide from my work and the responsibilities I have in life despite this inner urge t
THE SOUND OF MUSIC Portrait Art by Laurie Justus Pace SOLD 18 x 24 inches Oil on Canvas Contact me for commission work: Laurie Father May I? Picking up from yesterday's posting, I did receive quite a few positive responses to Father May I.... Thank you always for emailing me to make comments. I depend on the Lord to guide me as I write each morning. This painting is a portrait of a daughter of my mother's godchild. She is very gifted with music on several instruments as is her older sister. I still have some touch up on this yet to go, but enjoyed painting on it this weekend. Moving forward in life in the grace of God's unconditional love finds new opportunities, changes in our lives, and discovery of the new places and people. Trust in the Lord and the wisdom He has provided for you. He has given you the knowledge you need and it is time you use this knowledge to your greater good. Grace, Laurie “For ‘In him we live and move and have our being’; as even some of yo
