Sand Castles!
Tuesday we went to Weston Super Mare were they have a Sand Sculpture Festival – these are basically giant sand castles – but… oh my! They are amazing! It’s still on and is an annual events 🙂
This guy was working on a giant gamers birthday cake with lots of vintage computer game graphics on it!
The skill and craft were amazing as were some of the ideas and geometry behind the sculptures! Here are some of my pictures but really if you get a chance to go… then go! It was a couple of quid and careers go free and there were lots of student and elderly concessions etc… plus sand pits to play.
Faces in Sand
Fairy Tales
Because we saw the sculptures just after the Dismaland exhibition I looked at the little sand world and all I could think was “I See No Borders”.
There was loads of character work – I could of taken a lot more pictures but time and weather were running against me!
Jungle – complete with the liberian 😉
The Sea – I am obsessed with seascapes so I spent alot of time looking at this lengthy sand sculpture, complete with whale and boat.
Don’t lick the sculptures! (He never listens)
The Dragon! (I took this one with the 3D camera as well and am most pleased with the result!)
Seriously love this dragon!
