The daily grind and then some

Art Extreme

Do you remember playing in the sand? Dragging your fingers through the sand and making little pictures or leaving your initials behind only to have a wave come along and wipe it all out.

Meet Jim Denevan a kid that never grew up.

Jim has been drawing in the sand for a long time and he's famous for it! Why, you are asking. Jim's drawings tend to be 30 miles or more longer and he does it with nothing but a stick. No measuring tools, just a stroll along a beach when the tide is out.

All those intricate patterns - washed away in a few minutes once the tide returns. Simply amazing!

Que mal que se borre con un poco de agua :worried:

bueno, lo efimero de la obra seguro influye en nuestra percepcion de belleza, y hace mas probable que la cataloguemos como arte, no crees?

Saludos.

Always a clean canvas after the tide comes in
