Summer Horse 22 (2012)

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Summer Horse 22 (2012) 8 x 10 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Summer Horse 22... love the blue almost periwinkle background and the slicing in of browns and oranges on the pony's body... bring it tightly together. The splash of sunlight takes you eye out of the painting.  There were small piece and so much fun to get up every morning and post the painting from the day before.  Psalm 103:11  "For as high as the heavens are above the earth, So great is His love for those who fear Him."  Typical Summer weather has hit north Texas.  We had massive rains for the last four weeks and really nothing moving in this week but the full blast of Summer. The temp will be 91-94 but the feels like will be well over 100.  Terry will begin watering the trees with a probe. He has his hands full trying to work on beds in the heat outside. I will be doing the 10...

Out of the Mist

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Three out of the Mist Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Three out of the Mist is  an engaging horse painting in colors I rarely paint with.  I was unsure of putting it on my website for sale, but I did and I had it on Facebook and Instagram.  It sold in 24 hours and later the owner sent me a photo of it hanging. It was right at home. I could tie into the Verses below with the lead horse is the strong one leading the others!!! Romans 14:13 "T herefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother."   Romans 15:1  "Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of those without strength and not just please ourselves."  These two verses knit together. They are about being strong in faith, or weak in faith and growing, and those that are strong should never pass judgem...

Facing the Storm

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Facing the Storm Oil on Canvas 2015  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Facing the Storm, this horse painting  was created and sold in 2015.  I can still feel the power in this abstract horse. This is one I would love to hang in my home!! The horse faces things in life humans could not face. Their heart and strength is filled with God's power in their creation. Serving man here on earth, they have withstood challenges.    Psalm 37:5-6  " Commit your way to the LORD;  trust in Him, and He will do it.   He will bring forth your righteousness like the dawn,  your justice like the noonday sun. " God is unfailing . If you believe in Him you know this. Trusting Him through dark times that last a long time, is truly a trying time. I literally cling to Him right now. He will not fail me. I know this. We are in year three of a family situation. I have a...

Sharp, something is coming your way!    I am trying not to listen to TV and hubby has all the things on about the drones and other things that are not my favorite. Gave me a quick minute tonight to post the drawing name.  We had a busy day yesterday and today...both days running around Dallas. Could not leave today without a burger from Becks on Preston and Forest.  We got it to go... and I got a salad.... Made it home with 20 min to spare and we were off to church for the Christmas Music presentation. Over two hours of beautiful music, singing and praising... Left us filled with the joy and awe of Christmas.  Another short post...but  a great Bible verse tonight:  Philippians 2: 12-15 " Therefore, my dear...

Horses Gathering at Sunrise

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 The Painted Ponies Gathering Three Sunrise Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Each of my painted ponies has a different approach or flair. This is fresh like spring for me and lots of sunlight.  I mentioned yesterday I wanted to share about something that happened Saturday.  We were on our way to our grandson's baseball game and the sky was a beautiful blue and just a handful of clouds. I glanced up and was mesmerized by the clouds and the back lighting and contrast in several of them that were gathered together. Light playfully filtered through. I felt instant joy.  Let me type that again, I felt instant JOY.   We know God gives us challenges. We know He walks before us... with us... and guards behind us . That and only that has sustained us through the last two years marked beginning Oct 5, 2022.  From Oct to the end of Dec was a journey I care ne...
