Heroic Actions Mapped

In reflection on this past Sunday’s 10th anniversary of 9/11, I thought this unusual “mural” would be appropriate for this post. The artwork was created by mapping geological locations of where actions were taken by firefighters and the fire department (in the Netherlands) over the last 10 years. Although not uniquely American, maybe this is all the more significant in that actions of this type occur universally but to create artwork from it is unique and unusual.

This decorative painting piece was created by a company called stay nice. They’ve mapped other projects as graphic design work as well.

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
