the country of Ecuador.

strong, extraordinary and
unique tendency towards art.

participation in a painting
course guided by a famous
artisan from Quito the
capital of Ecuador.
Nowadays Ligia is a devoted
mother to five wonderful
children nevertheless she
does not give up expressing
her great creative talent in
art; and it is shown through
the courses which she conveys
to children in different
community centers in
Qalansawa city and to girls
in the amenity service in the
city.
Her achievements in the field
of art which are expressed in
both, her creative works and
the maximum satisfaction of
her scholars from her
professional guide brought
