This one will take a bit of explaining. There is a group in Seattle, WA that publishes a newspaper called "Real Change". http://www.realchangenews.org/
The focus of the paper is issues related to the homeless. The paper is printed and sold to homeless people for about $.60 which they can resell on the street for $2.00 - as a way for them to earn some income. To raise awareness for the paper and homelessness in general, there is a traveling portrait show being displayed around the Seattle area. I thought it was a great idea and wanted to be involved. The portraits are of the various homeless vendors; and my contribution is a watercolor of a gentleman called Richard.
