Horses are the most magnificent creatures. The relationship between horse and man is sacred.  The horse has been apart of man's life from the beginning in work and in pleasure. 

 

Today there are so many abused and starved horses in the world. I started this lens to be able to add to it information and websites to organizations involved with horse resuce.

My good friend Darci at Double HP (Horse Help Providers Inc.) in South Dakota, shares her stories of rescue with me all the time. Sometimes there are happy endings, othertimes I cry as I read of the loss despite their intervention.

DAILY THOUGHT and A HORSE PAINTING A DAY. 

EQUINE ART

JACKSON HOLE TWO ~ Abstract Horse Painting by Laurie Justus Pace

24 x 24 inches
Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas

Contemporary Art for the Home

Saturday dawns but this body has been up for four hours. I was working on the book I started three years ago. Actually there are three books done and I am doing my reviewing and rewriting. Once we are moved I will be blogging parts of it to you but will let you know where and when at a later date.

This painting is an acrylic painting with the combo of using TAR with the paint to create a thick substance. This is used in the mane and the tail and surrounding the horse with color.

Today I am shooting my kids. Yeah, that is what I said, SHOOTING THEM! With my camera. They are heading down to Nacogdoches to celebrate their grandfather's 90th birthday and I am doing some pictures of them together and will make prints on the big printer. Hopefully Stacey will get it framed! MAYBE I will post it tomorrow for you to see my grown angels.

THEN I am house hunting as we are still homeless in a month. PRAY for us in our search. God's guiding hand is there, I just need to keep the faith. Requirements are a place to paint, a place to pack paintings and room for two sailboats. Sailboats we never sail.

I leave you this day with the light of God's love blessing you in your journey.

Shalom,
Laurie

HORSES in the News 

Horsing around you can discover lots of new stuff!

I will be adding different sites to this as I build this lens so hang in there! We have been traveling so maybe now I can work on this!
Double HP Horse Rescue South Dakota
Stop by and read up on what is happening and see pictures of available horses for adoption.
Quarter Horse News Magazine
Katie Tims, editor of Quarter Horse News, stopped by yesterday at the house to visit and see my art work. (yes I have an art lens too!) We covered a lot of territory from horses, to riding, to art to painting, from Artbyus to eBay, the Five Graces...I can tell Katie has never met a stranger! I enjoy the visit and hope to see her again soon.
Feeding of horses
This one through me for a loop...and then I investigated further...it is not from the US. (It is from Australia) I was looking for some sites for feeding of horses and then saw this site and clicked on it. There is a HUGE YELLOW BOX that addresses chemicals in food, which I am totally against for humans or animals...but then it said horse meat is used for consumption. Okay, I couldn't handle this. Not my horse, my dog or my family. I couldn't eat my birds either. I will find some more local links!
GOOD FEEDING OF HORSES
This site looks pretty good! Very basic and easy for the person thinking of getting a horse.
Caring for your horse
Again from the Aussie's this great article about contemplation of getting a horse and the constant care it will require. We live in horse country and in this heat, the livestock is suffering.
United States Equine Sanctuary and Rescue
This is a horse rescue near me here in North Texas.

And your thoughts are.....
