Are you limiting yourself in life for the wrong reasons? We start out so simply being born into the arms of our family who then tend to our needs and cares. Depending on the 'soil' we grow in... comes our attitude for life. It grounds us in His miracle grow.. or we may be planted in poor soil promoting fears and anxieties.  Sometimes the soil is weak and we become weak even as we grow. CLICK HERE TO READ MORE.

Rain was predicted and Dallas had been blessed with 18 hours of solid rain. Not much was on the screen to our disappointment.      The ground is dry and much has died around us. I gave up watching the computer scene hearing my grandmother's voice echoing in my head, "A watched pot never boils".  Click here to read more. Laurie Justus Pace My Bl

In Awe    20 x 30 inches Oil on Canvas SOLD This equine painting was done in 2010 and it sold with in two weeks of completion.  I love the energy and the colors that explode behind the horse in the painting and the powerful strength in the horse. When looking at it now I realize I want to paint it a again and tweak the neck area coming into the chest.   I guess that is why artists revisit subjects to paint them again and try new things.  ©Laurie Pace    Graphics One Design 1998-2011   Contact me for your own commissioned painting: Laurie          Colors of God God is the light that surrounds me.

Sitting outside on the deck swing this morning I closed my eyes and emptied my mind feeling the breath of God around me in the strong early morning southern breeze. Anticipation is of gulf moisture bringing possible rain tomorrow. The trees blow caressed by  His early sunrise breeze, they are waiting. What is it they can do? Nothing, they simply wait and feel the wind touching through their branches and leaves. Waiting grounded in the earth by their deep

We are often too busy for God. Or we think we are too good and do not need His grace. It is only when your heart is open to His saving race can you have a true relationship with God. His saving grace for us become His sanctifying grace. We grow both in His grace as well as with His grace. Growing in love following Him brings peace to life. God's grace covers us through our trials and hardships guiding by His light from our darkest places.  CLICK here to read more... My Blog    My Website     Giclees on Canvas, Print

As an artist/mom I would make sure the plate I put before my children was colorful. I had one that would not eat eggs. There was one that would not eat corn or mashed potatoes. Finally there was one that ate everything. He is that way in life too...he has to try everything, the good and the bad.     CLICK HERE TO READ MORE> My Blog    My Website     Giclees on Canvas, Prints and Cards      The Five Graces     The Artists of Texa

Always on the run? Always worried things are catching up to you and you have to run faster. Early morning we start out on a slow pace... Looking around and taking in our surroundings. The sun has broken through with morning light and we are newly awakened to the day. We begin our day and seem to fall right in line behind others, following their path and their way. It may not even be the direction we are suppose to be traveling, but it seems safe, others are doing it too.  We stay sheltered and hidden in the shadows hoping no one will single us out.

My brain was not racing but it definitely was not on a straight path of thinking. It was just hitting sunset as I began to pace the floors inside. I escaped outside with my camera. READ MORE HERE&g
