Hard to believe, but we are only a couple days short of our one year anniversary of moving to Ecuador and starting our lives as a retired couple.  So much has happened in this past year that it is hard to get my head around it. I find I go back and reread my own blog posts to remind me of all we have done — and get tired just reading about it! 🙂

One of the highlights of our first year’s anniversary is Evelyn’s devotion to developing her skills as an artist.  She has had talent for decades, but never really had the time to spend.  In this last year, she has found a strong and supportive art community in Cuenca, and has been taking lessons from a world-class painter, Alberto Soriano. This year, she also had her first art exposition.

We have finally gathered together her new work from this year, and updated the gallery.  You can click on the “art” tab above, or here to see it.
