A talented person is talented in everything. To paraphrase this phrase, we can say that a creative person can create a masterpiece out of nothing. For example, the artist Andres Amador prefers to paint his paintings … with a rake on a wet beach at low tide. As a result, the image is stretched to an area of up to 10,000 square meters, and the beach itself begins to resemble an art gallery.
Quite an unusual hobby of the artist leaves its imprints on his habits. Andres Amador has to work quickly to complete the job before the tide. Plus, a masterpiece cannot be taken with you like a painting on a canvas. Therefore, he can save his creations only thanks to high-quality aerial photographs.
But these nuances do not stop the artist. Andres Amador admits that he works for the sake of the process, not the result. Moreover, very often the waves manage to destroy the drawing even before the artist finishes it. But such moments do not upset Andres Amador. He enjoys creativity and the admiring eyes of passers-by, who enthusiastically examine the artist's creations.
And this is not surprising, because people are used to sand figures, and paintings in the sand are rare. But eyewitnesses claim that after Andres Amador appeared on the beach, more and more people are armed with a rake to repeat his undertaking.
