kj~ Read your comment early in the day and thought about your saying "the best part is how spiritual it is" as the day went along. You are so right.
Marion~ I really did just stumble upon it, because I was looking for a new piece by another woman sand artist who I featured in an earlier post. I couldn't take my eyes off this one either. :)
Alyssa~ My pleasure. Enjoy your weekend.
La Belette Rouge~ I figured it would not be new to everyone here, but I also thought it would still be special...and I can tell it was that for you. Good weekend!
Maggie May~ Magical. Powerful. Interesting. Beautiful. Spiritual. Viewers here came up with the best words for the video. :)
I have seen her doing these sand drawings in several videos. She is fantastic.
This one was the best yet, because the subject matter is so tragic and emotional.

Darlene~ She sure is fantastic. I'll have to view other sand drawings by this artist over at youtube.

я соглашаться!
Do you have any idea how long it took me to figure out the first two words are "very" and "beautiful"? I can't find a pronouncing Eng/Rus dictionary...
Still figuring out the last word, some sort of address I presume.
