In 1979 Eleanor rented an apartment on Marine Street in St. Augustine. A painter traveling from Mexico she found a place that fit her desires. An ancient, tropical enclave by the sea. A few months later she met Curt, a newly arrived woodenboat sailor who had traveled down the East Coast from the Outer Banks of North Carolina stopping and working along the way. He too had found a good reason to stay.

From that time, through their years together and the many places they have lived, they have documented their experiences through creative expression. Their story continues here...

Small Steps


Eleanor and I have been working hard in Richmond. We are happy here and our art is progressing well. I am painting most every day and Eleanor is developing new 3D pieces and working on her book project that is leaning toward a cookbook based in the Depression and WWII. We are both researching new marketing strategies and feeling good about our future. We will be looking for new travel desinations to explore creatively after the holidays.

Chloe just received news that her choreography will be representing VCU at the American College Dance Festival in Tampa. It is quite an honor to be the only piece chosen from all student work this year. We are proud of her achievement to say the least.
