Where else can you observe the beauty of a windswept cedar tree than on an Outer Banks beach walk? The ecological story these native trees tell is fascinating and inspiring.

We absolutely love the burst of creativity in this wood inlay sculpture of a sailboat on the ocean. The rustic feel of the wood is undoubtedly “Outer Banks approved.” This kind of technique is called intarsia, an old art form from the Middle East. Artists carefully inlay wood pieces together like a jigsaw puzzle to create the desired visual effect.
Wild horses taking a walk on a colorful wide open beach? Yep, this is definitely the picture of an Outer Banks summer. The striking colors of sand, ocean, and sky are stunning in this exquisite oil painting. Even the silvery frame around it reflects the shimmer of a dreamy seaside paradise!
