Snow or Sun? Memories of winter when you cannot race the sun.

© Laurie Pace        Graphics One Design 2024 Racing the Sun Oil on Canvas  SOLD   by Laurie Pace   First things first.  Day 5 Winner is S Wilson Congrats!!! Do you remember   racing home from a friends house, running as fast as you could? It gets more exciting when others are racing with you to see who gets to your front porch first! It is especially fun in the snow and I believe there is snow on the ground in this painting.  I painted this when my studio overlooked the waters of Lake Cypress Springs, and we had a three or four acre cat fish pond in our backyard. East Texas trees soared all around our home.  My studio had six windows and a glass door leading out to the deck and the trees. Often we could watch the dear scamper across the land dam between the lake and the pond while snow flakes floated through the air. Here was our home.  We had bird feeders everywhere, passion vines growing in the ...

Congratulations!  I think I have the perfect fun thing coming your way! The  painting above is a favorite. This is when painting was fun, things were selling and I could not paint fast enough.

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...
