Andreas Amador

So remember I love everything in grand scale? Andreas Amador is a San Francisco-based landscaper and artist that takes grand scale to a new level. His work consists of geometric as well as organic drawings. His canvas, sandy beaches. That's right, he carves his drawings onto beaches using only a rake and his crew. His drawings work around the topography of the land. This creates a fluid flow that allows for more organic shapes and a more balanced look. Like anything created in sand, these only last for a short period of time. They will only be memorialized in photo.

You already know how I feel about always having a camera handy. You never know what you will see or create. I'm also a big fan of florals, swirls, and organic lines. Creating them in such a large scale just enhances their beauty and leaves one in awe. The next time you go to the beach, try drawing stuff into the sand. You never know, you might create a masterpiece (even if it's on a smaller scale).
