Laurie © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2009 The Painting:   Brilliant colors burst through on this end of the year celebration of the life of 2009 in the studio.  Daring boldness and VERY thick paint. It cannot ship until the first of the year. The Thought:  I am blogging the night before (Monday Night) and this will post Tuesday morning. EXHAUSTED from keeping up with Tink but oh what fun we had at Oma's house.  I prepared Oma's homemade pancakes this morning and she was oh so happy with her first taste of pancakes with real maple syrup. YUM. We have her again tomorrow... which is today if you are reading this ... and I am on my way to meet her mother to pick her up half way between their home and our home... so knowing we have to leave at six,  I decided to blog the night before. Do you ever listen to "Godl

Click a second time if necessary to enlarge. © Laurie Justus Pace Graphics One Design 2009 The Painting: Layers of lovely thick rich buttery oil paints! I love it when they move across the canvas like this. Holbein Duo Oils on gallery wrap canvas. The Thought: Not every day is a battle, but it seems there are things to be done and completed. The frustration is usually the uncompleted things at the end of the day. This "battle" to get it all done is not just your battle. When you arm yourself with God, you will find great success. It will never be the success you envision, but from it will come great things as they are of Him. Reminds me of David when he battled Goliath. Such a small shepherd boy with his slingshot and rocks against a power warrior. David was armed with the Lord. He could not fail. Every move and thought had a purpose to bring succ
My Sister Commissioned Painting Girl, Dog and Horse by Laurie Justus Pace SOLD This was painted about four or five years ago, but I was going through old pictures and found it! Yes, I have not been painting as much to finish things. I had to dig in old files to post this morning and chose this sweet commission piece I did for a collector in the south. I love working with memories! Yesterday we tenderly drove my dad to a VA facility in our area of Texas that has an Alzheimers Wing. My older brother, my loving husband and I gently moved him from the respite care he was in to this facility where we all feel he will get better care. The folks there are small town folk with huge hearts. They all chipped in to help us get him settled as Mom filled out mountains of paper work. It is sad knowing he is an hour away instead of two miles away, but we firmly believe the care is the best we could find. It was a sad day for all of us and yet we must stand firm in God's grace knowing the de
AT ODDS ~ Abstract Contemporary Horse Art by Laurie Justus Pace 30 x 30 inches angled Oil on Gallery Wrap Canvas It is good to be home, but it was a sleepless night. The effects of sunburn, ozone and heat stroke are powerful. The show was great and a total of 14 paintings sold and maybe 10 prints. Also sold a handful of books and quite a few posters. BUT, it did remind me of why I don't do tent shows. It has been three years and this will most definitely be the last one. I always enjoy all the folks I see and meet and hopefully trade off positive energy. The above painting is a typical pull painting for me with a twist of an angle. It is powerful in person but may not look right on this blog. No telling. I think God is like that for sure. He is powerful but the situation may not always look right. Falls back on that trust issue again. Boy today's Dailyword.com is right on. "I may not always understand the reasons that my life is unfolding as it is. I have faith, how
