Easter Island Head, turtle and flames

CanCarve — Sat, 24 Sep 2022 16:50:08 +0000

Sculpting in Sand

CanCarve — Sat, 24 Sep 2022 16:36:11 +0000

Participated in two sand sculpture events this summer; Port Elgin and Sauble Beach. Lots of energy moving easily a ton of sand each time for the pack up and pounding. Really enjoyed these opportunities.
