While vacationing in Ocracoke, North Carolina, it was coincidental to read this article about Hitnes, the Italian street artist and his duck murals recently painted in Pine Island Sanctuary in Corolla, NC. He is retracing John Audubon’s footsteps while traveling across the US, painting murals as he goes. You can read the full article with links for his inspiration on Audubon.org.

Although Corolla was a little out of our way to travel to on the return route back home we saw plenty of Nature’s everyday art.

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.
