'The Moon' 5 x 7 inches oil on Panel SOLD Contact me to purchase through personal check or paypal: Laurie © Laurie Justus Pace    Graphics One Design 2009 The Painting :   This new series is a gift series for the holidays.  Affordable original art perfect to slip into a frame for that special friend. The Thought :  Inner peace is my mantra today ... it is Friday.  Different for us though as our weekend is truly Monday/Tuesday with Terry's job schedule.  Inner peace should be every day this early in the morning.  I try not to borrow tension from looking at the dreaded list.  Yes I have a new one this week. I allow myself to sit back and feel God's peace fill me as I breath and pray to Him.  The stillness is energizing and calming.  The less focused I am on current day problems or needs, the more at peace I can become. The house is quiet . No tv blaring, no Ipod playing, no coffee pot burpling (I don't drink coffee) ... nothing but quiet surrounds

Brings back thoughts of that child rearing book from the seventies "Tough Love
A Painting a Day ~ Niki ~ Acrylic POP Art Painting by Laurie Pace 30 x 30 inches Acrylic on Canvas SOLD Contact me for commission work: Laurie © Laurie Pace 2009 " From the fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another. " John 1:16 A Painting A Day: Pop Art a favorite for many of the younger generation and me too! I love the simplicity of blocked color and form and the intensity of the subject matter defined so clearly. Pop Art is a movement that began in the mid fifties in the UK and by the late fifties, it was here in the states.

This was painted for a dear friend in the D.C. area and it hangs lovingly in her home... she has the attitude that you see in the painting. Of course that is totally up to your personal interpretation. *** Exciting news a
