Sonya is pretty amazing. At 8 years old, she has an insatiable love for the outdoors and would rather be dribbling a basketball or shooting her bow and arrow over playing with dolls any day. She loves to sing and whistle and build interesting things with cardboard boxes–I like this girl. Sonya especially loves art. In fact, she attends classes at a professional art studio where she is creating masterpieces…seriously.
In an effort to make sure she would not be left behind as her parents travel to China in just a couple weeks now to bring home Cassie, Sonya devised a plan to raise enough money to cover her own travel costs. Sonya’s plan involved selling her very own artwork on her mom’s blog. It didn’t take her long to reach her goal of $500. So, she came up with a new plan to help pay her sister’s way home.
Her goal is $1,000. And, she has raised about half of that so far. And, it’s no wonder. Masterpieces, people.
One of you will have the opportunity to choose 3 of your favorite prints to be sent directly to you. Sonya’s mom Cheryl will be sure to slip them in the mail before they fly across the world on December 2nd.
And, the rest of you, please head on over and consider purchasing a print for under $10. That’s nothing. Nothing for something…and something big.
(And, don’t forget to enter the giveaways posted on Monday and Wednesday from Arton and Hepzibah’s House too)

What a great idea! I love kids working for something, not just getting it for free! I loved “waterlilies,” “flowers in a vase,” and “beach.”
Kathy Davis says
Wonderful pictures. My favorites:
Cattails, Cactus in Clay Pot and especially Basket Full of Apples.
I have a friend who just adopted two girls from China, one with a cleft pallet and the other girl has no hands or feet. What blessings these girls and their new family will have on each other.

Cassie’s spirit is beautifully expressed in these creations. I like them all, but if I had to choose….I’d probably say “Water Lilies”, “Basket Full of Apples and/or “Cattails”. May she and all the children in need of a safe place be blessed and cared for.
