These gigantic sand doodles are hardly the same thing as our thoughtless paper scribbles. They require some planning, lots of hard physical work and the scale is obviously out of our league. BUT, I can still see the relation.
Something like a cousins, twice removed.

The swirls, the patterns, the fact that it’s so temporary and can be easily destroyed…

I officially proclaim this unusual artist - the Grand Sand Doodler of all times.

Hello normand,
Yeah, I guess that’s the “nature of the beast”. But while they exist, they’re quite beautiful.
