Of those built on sand, only the pyramids are eternal. But from built of sand, nothing lasts forever. Take sand sculptures, for example. It takes several hours to create them, and they are destroyed, at best, in a few days. However, the game is worth the candle. After all, such sculptures give a huge amount of pleasure to both their creators and ordinary viewers. And if these are some themed sculptures, then to the fans. For example, fans of "Star Wars".
After all, this summer, on one of the beaches in California, there was a sand sculpture festival dedicated to this very theme - the universe of the Star Wars movie saga.
This festival attracted nineteen creative groups, each of which created their own sculpture. It also attracted thousands of fans of the creation of George Lucas, who gathered for such a spectacle from all over the United States of America.
Moreover, both professional sand sculptors and amateurs could participate in the festival. The latter did some simple things, for example, a nondescript starship from "Star Wars", but the professionals created real large-scale works of art. Moreover, some of them were with a fair sense of humor. Where now without him?
So by the end of the festival, a lot of Darth Vader (after all, the most popular character in the Universe) had formed on the beach, and slightly fewer other characters from Star Wars.
Thanks to the special secrets of sand sculptors who use cans of varnish or glue to create their sculptures, some of these sand sculptures in the form of Star Wars heroes stood on the beach on which they were made for about a week. To the delight of casual passers-by and fans of this MCU.
