I met Caratoes three years ago in Hawaii and it was around this time she started to live a pretty nomadic life. In the time since then, she’s painted murals all over the world, and has been regularly posting these half-flipped images to her Instagram, @caratoes. I definitely recommend giving her a follow—always inspiring. I love this mural she just finished in Lima, Peru.
"We are all observing reality from our unique point of view, life. Its our duty to try to share/live what ours looks/sounds/feel like. The beauty and the ugly. The chaos and the order. So we are all together forming the true facets of reality." -Caratoes
