Sand Art Festival at Cocoa Beach

This is a festival held each spring. They invite famous sand artists to participate from all over the world. They also have a section for local artists. I did not know that some of these people own companies that do nothing but make sand sculptures for movies, commercials, posters, displays for stores, etc. Who knew that you could make a living playing in the sand? (Stacey, one of them is a Texas teacher who gave up her job 15 years ago to sculpt sand and she has a book out about it.)


Each one had a theme and was very intricate. (Shakespeare theme)


Michelangelo's David
