Modern SURREALISM ART GALLERY 2006 by George Grie:

Sand castles are typically made by children, simply for the fun of making them. However, adults sometimes engage in contests making sand sculptures, in which the goal is to create structures which don't appear to be constructed just from sand; they can become large and complex. Other vulnerable media are ice and snow, leading to ice sculptures and snow sculptures. Adults may find sand castle construction to be almost "Zen-like" in its ability to create total focus and relaxation. An example of extremely sophisticated sand art is the Buddhist mandala.

I love this piece, so much in fact, that before I joined this site, I decided to make a traditional art version with just pencils. Tell me what you think --->[link]

Of course, my illustration board wasn't the right size :roll: so I had to shrink it down a bit and mess with a few parts to get it to look good.

But hey, I got an A+ :highfive:

Wow... seriously breathtaking!
I'm looking for artists who want to have a hand in our latest project, The Envaryan Chronicles. We'd love to have a piece with your style.
Anyway, think about it. The only blog post on our sight has all the details.
Your stuff looks great! Keep it up.
