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...

The End of Week Two

This past week I helped a couple children with their drawing. I found a clay pot for a still life and we had a good "class" even though my Spanish was very poor. There was a lot of hand gestures. Others came by and wanted to join in. We decided to do it again and Eleanor will work with us, which will make it much better.







 


On Friday we joined the director Royce and Holgar, another artist-in-residence from Winnipeg, for a trip to the forest beyond San Ramon. We caught a cab in the center of the city and headed to Las Musas, a small water park and restaurant that overlooked a 200 ft. waterfall. Swimming, watersliding, hiking and lunch. A real find.
