FEDEX run as well as grocery shopping. Terry boxed yesterday and I started cleaning house...maybe I will finish today! We did get clean sheets on the bed last night and that always feels good. Today I will do the rest of the wash and finish up the house. Surprises yesterday arrived, some beautiful crystal dessert bowls from a dear friend. They arrived safely all the way from Australia. I was not expecting them and it is so fun to get unexpected surprises in the mail. I finished the book that Carol and I have been working on. The name of the show in Jackson is CROSSING PATHS. Carol and I have an ad coming out for the August issue of American Art Collectors. I also ran a half page ad for July too! It is below: My thoughts today run to not only forgiving people in your life that YOU think did a wrong thing to you or

THROUGH THE COLOR Horse Abstract Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace 18 x 27 inches Contact me to purchase and please mention title of painting: Laurie If you are not into deep thought, stop reading this blog right now....I had a lot on my mind last night when I went to bed. After about an hour, I finally let it go, so I could go to sleep. There is so much prep work for the show in Jackson Hole. I have only one more page to complete in the book I am doing with artist Carol Spielman . Sixty some odd pages of FABULOUS artwork. I will hyperlink her name so you can see her work too. Read on with care as I try to express something from deep in my heart. When thinking about the bible verse I posted below it was easy to think about living the straight and narrow. Not making bad choices; living clean and not doing wrong. Then as I sat and reflected about it I decided it goes so much deeper. Destruction. We seem to destroy ourselves. Others do not have to do it for us. We are usually hard

APPALOOSA THREE Horse Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace 36 x 36 x 2 inches $3500 Contact me for Information on this painting. Laurie July 12th is my opening show in Jackson Wyoming at the Rare Gallery. If you are in the vicinity I hope you will come! This is one of the pieces I have completed for the show. My original Appy painting lives in Australia and it has been so popular with my posters I decided to paint her a second time in my current style. An artist style evolves over time as they paint. Small strokes change with applied pressure and things just change. Natural evolution in our lives is aging. The world is aging, we are aging; it is all part of the cycle of life that God created in our world. Think of the short span of flowers...as they bud, open and bloom and linger for a short time before they wither on the vine. Trees have a longer life. They start out small and grow tall and spread beautiful canopies of shade for us. They live for years some hundreds of years,

LADY C Horse Painting by Laurie Justus Pace 48 x 72 inches Mixed Media, Acrylic Glazing SOLD Commission Contact me for Commission work: Laurie In the midst of busy studio life I completed the layering on this commission painting. The size is 48 by 72 inches. (4 ft by 6 ft) I did a smaller one earlier this week to see how I liked working with the layers and glazing and it was definitely different. This particular piece does not have the music in the background, but has Lady Chatterly's Lover page by page. Personally I would have like a nude stretched across it, but this family has small children so it was best to be a horse theme. If you really look at it you see the "HEART" or the heART with in. Combine the check of the large horse on the right and follow the heart shaped into neckline and shoulder of the running horse. This was not planned at all, it happened as I worked and I saw it as I was glazing it during the final layers. That is one of God's inputs I a

Brilliance of Summer Horse Oil Painting by Laurie Justus Pace 15 x 30 inches Oil on Canvas Contact me to purchase. Laurie I am aching from work yesterday... one day at a time. Today will be even harder with house work today preparing for one more inspection for our Foster Adopt license to be completed at the new house! Terry is working on the gate for the fence in the backyard and trying to clean up the mess out there. I have the house to contend with following the week of painters and window people. TO work to work! As I take a moment to pause and realize GOD is in control. God is present all around me and He is keeping me safe, even from myself and over working today. Where ever I am, God is.

His presence is with you right now. Grace, Laurie "Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his presence con
