Hampton Beach Sand Sulptres

Last Week we headed to the annual Hampton Beach Sand Sculpture contest. The sculptures were judged on Saturday, and we showed up Monday hoping to beat the crowds. They were amazing! Even more amazing is they are made from only water and sand! At the very end, the sculptor will add a coating of Elmers glue glaze, to protect the sculpture from the elements, but other than that it's good old water and sand. But the glaze won't help at all if the sculpture isn't built right. Each contestant has the same amount of sand and time to complete their creations. There were so many different sizes you would never know. The bio's of the sculptors are so interesting. They range from sweet grandma looking ladies, to your typical looking beach bum. But most of them said they all started out just like Miles, Caleigh, Griffin and Elliot with a shovel and a bucket.

Can't wait to see the works of Art.

Griffin very into castles and Dragons loved the one with a castle and dragon.

They were all Great, but my favorite sculptor is this little girl, and her works of art are always prize worthy.
