Artist's Comments

Sculpted during the 2008 Harrison Hot Springs "Most Beautiful Castle Competition". There were 3 teams or "cities" competing, And I was on Team Victoria with 5 other very talented teammates.I spent most of my time creating left pile. It was fun, and I'm tickled just to be a part of it, amidst the best sand sculptors in the world.

Update: We did win Peoples Choice!

Here are some shots of the piece taken by the deviant Arien-Eska :iconarien-eska:

Daily Deviation

Given 2009-07-20

The variety of both textures and details in Aquarium by ~sculptin is really striking especially given that it is all constructed from sand. (Featured by ^Thebuild)

My favorite part of this picture is the concept that there is still snow on the mountains in the backround and you are building sand castles... Just amazing all around

I never really measured the exact amount. The amount of water added depends on many factors such as drainage, coarseness, clay content, sand humidity, type of form building. Basically every particle of sand has to get wet.

It was sooooo cold. Those of us in the shade nearly froze our fingers off.

You're a little bit shy, a little too quiet,
You're the mixed up girl that everybody leaves behind:
A little bit weird, a little too bright.

There's something in the way that she makes believe;
Please be careful, Annie dreams that everyone is dead.

This is so cute and whimsical. :) I love the detail you put into the rocks and castle, and the fish are very cute.
