I want to share with you this artist from the basque country who sculpts sand sculptures of brutal realism and he really enjoys doing it. He uses his hands, sand from the beach, a stick and a feather.

Art in all its appearances, is a vital characteristic that identifies the human being, has permitted to convey culture to its full extent and has been and is vital to its existence. Our plastic brain needs art. Already in the early years of our existence, and in a natural form, children sing, dance, play, draw and all these actions are essential for their correct emotional, motor, cognitive, sensory and cerebral growth that will allow them learn to learn. And by doing all these activities the child has fun, proudly shows his results to others, tries to progress and this is an effective way to train one of the great virtues of the human being: self-control.

Ohhh well, I’ve been to Donostia a couple of times I really love the Basque Country, I believe the beach in the first image is indeed San Sebastian!
That's impressive! Oh my, especially the elephant. Artists are artists, and often they stumble upon a certain material that just suits them - great thing to see.
