Featured Volunteer:
March 2010
Lee Evan Belfiglio
Quietly behind the scenes, Lee documents all
of EAFA’s activities. These include securing a
copy of each month’s newsletter, plus records
of all the receptions, exhibits, awards and
clippings from local magazines, newspapers
relating to EAFA. Her interest and education
in art started when her parents took her, as a
child, to art museums and shows - a good
education. Later, during an active musical
career, Lee served as a violist with the BCC
String orchestra, as well as with the Seattle
Symphony and in St. Thomas Episcopal
church. All the time, she longed to become an
artist. Add the activities of a family as well as
her career, she had little opportunity to
engage in the visual arts.
Now, as an empty-nester, she satisfies that
desire and worked originally in acrylics and
watercolor. Recently she has ventured into
experimenting with pastels. When I asked her
what she does for fun, she answered that she
and her attorney husband play their violas
together. Also, the entire family are amateur
oenophiles. Her two young adult sons plan
careers in computer ‘something’ and the
younger son is eyeing the global wine market
as well. In concluding our chat, Lee told me
how much she loves being a member of
EAFA. The other members continually inspire
her and, at each contact, she learns more.
"They are good teacher," she said. I added
that that is one of our primary goals. You can
see an example of her work at the Movers
and Shakers Show at Kaewyn Gallery until
March 15th.
