Painting Auction to Benefit Shell

My Friend Shell is currently facing the unimaginable challenge of terminal cancer. Throughout her life, Shell has touched so many with her kindness, warmth, and unwavering support. Now, as she enters her final days, I want to make sure she and her partner Jonathan can focus on what truly matters—spending meaningful time together, surrounded by love and comfort.

I painted this as a gift for her last Christmas. Now that she’s elected to stop treatments, she and Jonathan are taking one last road trip to Florida so she asked me to sell it in my gallery for a crazy high price – she wanted it to benefit me and felt it would bring me good fortune. To honor her wishes, I’m auctioning this painting – BUT 100% of the money will go back to Shell and Jonathan. The financial strain of medical bills and daily expenses can be overwhelming, especially during such a difficult time. Will you help me bring some love and light back to Shell for her birthday?
