We love how this painting literally tells its tale from inside a book cover! The unique perspective tells the story of the Chicamacomico Lifesaving Station on Hatteras Island. Still standing today, the original 1874 building housed the crew and their gear. Predating the Coast Guard, they saved over 177,286 souls! Debra marvels at the Station’s history. “It was moved 3 times by storms and twice by men. Its original location is now underwater in the Atlantic. It was struck by lightning in 2007. This building deserves some reverence.”

Whether it’s the merry month of May, an early holiday gift, or just because, it’s always a wonderful time to show your mom, grandma or mother figure how much you love them with art!
Maybe you’ve seen a miniature painting before, but have you witnessed a tiny sculpture or mini with three-dimensional details so small, you would find them with a magnifying glass?
