Temporary Art... Sandsations

Every summer in Long Beach artists and families come to the Sandsations festival to build sculptures made entirely of sand from the beach.  Most of us as children had our buckets and shovels to make a sand castle of some sort using the incoming wake as part of a moat.  When these artist get to work it is amazing to watch how they can create figures with such detail that will last for a few days and then .... poof... gone!
