    uniE608 The Sand Art
    This sand art creation was a special collaboration for an artist I work with, who makes customised pieces for a wide range of events. The process for this unique logo design was truly a team effort. We brainstormed ideas with the client and the artist, sketching out the design on paper before recreating it on a massive beach canvas. It's a race against the tide to film these temporary masterpieces before they're washed away, and I'm thrilled with how it turned out. This is a fantastic way to create something truly memorable for any occasion. Whether it's a corporate event, a wedding, a commemoration, or an anniversary, a custom sand art piece can make it unforgettable.
