| "Lenten Roses, Strong Women" 8" x 8" |
On March 2, Sophia Way is holding a dinner and auction at the Hilton Hotel in Bellevue, Washington. These two watercolor paintings of mine will be included in the auction. The Sophia Way provides the ONLY overnight shelter for single homeless women on the Eastside. They do a wonderful job serving women in crisis and helping them transition into long-term housing.
It's my wish that both of the paintings I donated will remind people of the struggle of homelessness and the tremendous hope that Sophia Way provides.

| "Apple Blossoms" 8" x 8" |
I choose to donate the painting of the hellebores (Lenten Roses) because they are such a symbol of hope and perseverance. If you live in the Seattle area and have a hellebore in your garden, right now, in the coldest days of the year, you might notice the buds starting to come up from the ground. The hellebores will be the first thing to bloom in my garden. Their blossoms will endure for months of cold and difficult weather.
The painting of apple blossoms is also full of hope and expectation. Something beautiful happens and then, with time and patience, the tree bears fruit.
The Sophia's Way is making a huge difference in the lives of many women right here in our community! Please consider purchasing tickets and supporting this amazing organization!
