Sudarsan Pattnaik (born on 15 April 1977) born in Puri, nearly 60 km from Bhubaneswar the capital city of Orissa. He is the inventor of sand art in India and has learned this form of art by himself without any guidance but only by practice and creative ideas. He started sculpting images on sand since the age of seven. Till now he has designed hundreds of sand sculpture.







Okay-I love this! A bit of a Winne-the-Pooh fan I must confess.
I just had to reblog these amazing sand sculptures. So glad that you like them~
There is actually an event in Corpus Christi that they have every year, I believe. It is a competition for those individuals that create sand sculptures. I have seen pictures of some of them and they are pretty amazing. The ones you displayed are wonderful.
That’s incredible. I live in Texas, I should look this event up.
I’ll try to find it too. It’s been a few years since I heard about it. You may have assumed, but I live in Texas too.
What part do you live in? I live near Houston.
I’m in San Antonio. I guess we are more or less neighbors.
My children’s grandparents live in San Antonio.
Small world-what part of SA?
Near the air force base hospital.
