Happy Sunday, friends.
Today's inspiration comes from sand artist Andres Amador. He's a San Francisco native who uses a single rake to create intricate "playa" (beach) paintings at low tide. In the short profile below, you'll see some of Amador's work and learn why he has chosen to create such intriguing but temporary pieces of art. To see even more examples of his creations, check out this story at ViralNova or go to his Web site, found here. Enjoy!
Wishing you all a creative and inspirational Sunday. ☺
Now that is stunning art. Thank you for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it, Martin.
DeleteBeautiful, Dana! Thank you. I love these posts. I hope you & your family have a blessed Sunday & a beautiful week!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad. :) These are some of my favorite posts to write. Happy Sunday!
DeleteYes, impressive and gigantic compositions in the sand!
ReplyDeleteThe size of them is definitely amazing!
DeleteI'd love to see one of those creations in real life. It's too bad they don't last very long!
ReplyDeleteI would, too. I don't know if I could make such temporary art. I think that would be hard for me...
DeleteThat art work is huge and amazing. And so very fragile — here one moment, gone the next! Thanks for sharing it, Dana.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and Bear hugs!
Blessing to you too, Bear. Have a great week!
DeleteHave a great Sunday
ReplyDeleteThanks, Adam. It was a pretty good one. ☺
DeleteWow, Dana, amazing work he does. Got love his effort to creating such beautiful works of art knowing the tide might be taking them out!
ReplyDeletebetty
Yes, I love what he says about that!
DeleteGood work never fails. Keep going...
ReplyDeleteI sure hope he will!
DeleteI get his message. But doesn't it depend on having someone there to witness it? If a tree falls in the forest, if there is no one there, does it make a sound?
ReplyDeleteI wonder what he'd say about that. I think he mentioned something about the process meaning more than the result. Maybe most of his enjoyment comes from the doing and not that other people see it?
DeleteIt's very beautiful, and what a wonderful location for work. :)
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is a very beautiful place. :)
DeleteThat was amazing and seemed sad thinking that when the tide come in it will all be washed away. Thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I could do so much work and have it be washed away so quickly. I like his attitude about it, though.
DeleteHave a nice week!
Very cool. It's like a zen garden, only bigger. :)
ReplyDeleteYes! :)
DeleteThat is so neat! I want to try that next time I go to the beach... well, not quite in that big of a scale!
ReplyDelete:) I know what you mean. It would be awesome to create art like this!
DeleteNice find. He truly is one amazingly creative man.
ReplyDeleteIndeed he is. ☺
DeleteHow awesome! I would be afraid that someone would step on it.
ReplyDeleteBut then again, I can barely build a sandcastle so I guess it wouldn't be a huge loss :D
LOL Sounds like our sand art abilities are about the same. ;)
