We pray for peace in the world.
We pray for Mars and Venus to conjoin
     in love, not war.
We pray for suicide bombers to choose
     life over heaven.
We pray for peace marchers to have love
     in their hearts, not hatred.
We pray for children to have food in their stomachs,
     not empty bellies.
We pray for money to buy drugs to treat leprosy.
We pray for those who research a cure for AIDS.
We pray for the emerald mountains of Columbia
     that the farmers who live in those green
     valleys may live there in peace.
We pray for God to save Allah and Allah to save

We pray for surrender in the arms of our beloved.
We pray for heaven on earth-now, not later.
We pray for peace, not revenge.
We pray to live in peace, because the suffering of a single child
     is not worth all the world's religions.
We pray for a full harvest, we pray for rain,

We pray, beloved.
We pray to the Christians and Jews and Muslims and Hindus
     and Buddhists and Sikhs and Taoists and Confucians
     for an end to conflict.
We pray: do nothing. We pray: kill nobody.
We pray: sacrifice not even a single child in the name.
Beloved.

SAND ART Mastery ~ from Dirty Car Art to Sand Animation Fantasy +

What comes to mind when you hear SAND ART? - may be sand castles & amazing sculptures on the beach? Or the amazing Buddhist colorful sand mandalas? And rightfully so, but they are just part of it. The name “Sand Animation Art” succinctly explains the medium, but does not fully articulate the wonder that it actually often provokes.

Always in constant motion, evolving every second, Sand Animation Art involves subtle participation as we watch unique live performance art created before our very eyes, minds & hearts. Usually accomplished using a projector & screen, the artist, first sprinkles a layer of sand on a transparent canvas & then proceeds to re-create intricate, seemingly 3 dimensional landscapes, symbols & figures. As soon as the first creation is finished, it is swept away or transformed to become something entirely new & original. Temporary renderings are completed at a really swift pace with precise and gentle hand strokes to our rising amazement. The synchronized music adds to the hypnotic effect, even when watching it on an online video, to complete the mesmerizing effect of these sand art masters & their incredible creations.

Sand Animation Art was pioneered by Caroline Leaf who made her first sand animation film in 1968. Ever since, a small dedicated group of people from around the world continues to practice this rare & captivating form to our delight, innertainment and inspiration.


Life Is Fun Sand Art


I invite you to explore 3 unique artists & their marvelous videos as you enjoy the sand art images sprinkled in between.

The first one is actually in its own category “Dirty Car Art” & is about Scott Wade who turns muddy, grimy, dirty cars into masterful works of art that will wash away in the next rainstorm…

The Hungarian-born Sand artist Farenc Cako is considered one of the masters. His deft hands and focused finger tips are staggering to see in action. Here is a short amazing clip of his unforgettable rendition of Animals in the mystery of sand.

I have shared some incredible pieces of Ilana's sand art before & below I have embedded more mesmerizing videos to illustrate the neverending appeal of the Sand Art of IIana Yahav. Just be in the moment as she creates these extraordinary sand phantasy art pieces -  feel the beauty of the stream of heART & the flow of Love through Sand…
