Rocky Mountain Sunrise, a Horse Painting by Laurie Pace

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Rocky Mountain Sunrise Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Romans 12:2 - "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." This powerful painting  of two horses standing in the winter wind was 'not conforming' when it began as a bear horizontally.  An artist just knows when something is not right. For me it is at that point I have to trust in God and in the Spirit within me to find a new path. The original painting had a lot of brown in it and was horizontal not vertical. You can see the dark colors that were pulled with a knife up and down (Side ways above) when I decided to wipe the bear off.  Then I flipped the canvas vertical and prayed. I loaded my palette knife with white paint and I began to shape th...

Second Glance

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Second Glance Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Ecclesiastes 7:9 NIV Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools.    Part of life is learning how to contain anger. Teaching Children at a younger age will actually help them be a better grown person later. Take a second glance at the children in your family. Are they happy of spirit and serving?  OR are they touched off quickly to anger to have things their way? Frustration is higher in our children today then when we grew up.  Too much TV, social media and game playing.  That affects all ages.  Make a difference.

Moonlight Horse and trying to do the right things at what may be the wrong time.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2025 Moonlight Horse   8 x 8 Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   2 Corinthians 11:25 "Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea...."  Have you ever felt no matter what you do, you were doing it wrong, or if you were trying to complete something things would pop up left and right to detain you?  Right now I feel this happening in my own life. One step forward and two or three steps backwards. This happened to Paul when he was preaching and could not travel or do the things he was called to do. Paul was an apostle spreading the gospel to foreign countries.  There is no direct evidence that Paul officially met Jesus before his death, but Paul did encounter Jesus on the Road to Damascus after his resurrection. Paul was called to proclaim His name to both Gentiles...

Thank you all! Merry Christmas... from Golden Pond Studio

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 OLD RED Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Merry Christmas! A few extras going out to surprise two more that entered. Thank you all for entering. I was only able to send out to 14 people from all that did enter! I am so appreciative for all my collectors as always.   (M Koger, I was waiting to hear back from you!) I pray you are in thought this day especially thinking about how the Babe Jesus was born here on earth, and through Him, God provides the gift of life eternal.  Romans 6:23 " For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Running Colors Horse Painting - Day 10 Giveaway

Horse p © Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Running Colors Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   Day 10 Give Away J Rosegay The horse above was a three month paint for me. It explored many things that related to one of our granddaughters and you have to look through it to find everything there is to discover.  Only in the mind of a seven year old that year! This was a gift for a friend in Kentucky, who later ended up with TWO little girls after raising some awesome sons! It is late tonight that I am blogging for the morning. It has been a long day with a quick run to Costco and last minute changes with Christmas Dinner... then home to bake Christmas cookies with our granddaughter!  I do believe we made about six dozen Christmas Sugar Cookies and iced them as well. It is an old 'family recipe'. We also make caramel Rice Krispie treats (no marsh mellows)   Double yummy.  Grandfather and Little Bit worked ...

Mother and Child - Day 3

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Mother and Child Oil on Birch  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   DAY 3   Pulled the name early this morning by the number I pulled out. N Burnette is the winner!  Congratulations! I hope every one enjoys the small things and large things that may come your way! We were listening to Jack Hibbs this morning covering Genesis 3:15. " And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, between thy seed and her seed, it shall bruise they head and thous shalt bruise his heel."  Yes. Ripped my heart to tears making our oatmeal this morning. To realize right away God had hope and a plan for us thru Jesus from the very beginning. Our  "celebration" is not just the birth of this wee babe but more focused on the serious gift of our salvation through Him. Not exactly taught the same in traditional church at all as the dearest "SAVING" gift of our path back to God  through His s...
