The Art of Sand Painting

The Chairman's letterhead complete with his photo and pawprint.

Ocean: a very LARGE bowl of water with the best ever kitty litter you can use for sand painting.

The Kreatrix and the Prof took Ginger and I to the ocean! It was part of our Catberry Tails Annual Retreat!

Remember this minor mishap?

The Chairman is using a backscratcher to try and draw designs in the kittly pan filled with sand kitty litter.

Because I was impressed with this:

Feast  your eyes, friends:

A sand painting made by the Chairman in the sand at the beach. It's a heart with Chair plus Ginger written in it.

Talk about romantic!

The Chairman and Ginger, two cute cat dolls stare out at the ocean as a flock of sandpipers runs through the wet sand.

I wanted the Kreatrix to get those birds in the shot to show Rudy, Melvin and Wally. They are HUGE bird watchers!

I will never be the same again. The Kreatrix says the ocean can do that to you.

Kreatrix pointed out all the stacks of rocks people had made.  She called it "the art of rock stacking." Just when I think I have this whole art thing figured out....

SO we collected some rocks and the gang has been stacking them all day. We are rock artists!

The cat doll community is stacking flat rocks collected from the ocean. They're doing a pretty good job!

Even Wally and Rudy tried to play.

Just when I thought I had the hang of it,  I googled rock stacking.

That Google! Can't tell you how many times it has burst my tomcat pride. Holy moly. I gotta get more rocks and learn how to do this!

Breathtaking display of stacked rocks.

Go check these guys out!

Unbelievably beautiful display of stacked rocks.

    This is so sweet! How nice they have ocean and not SNOW! I see no Polar Vortex in these pictures. HAHA! We tried rock stacking on vacation in San Diego. I failed miserably! It truly is an art.

      Snow? Polar Vortex? Non-stop summer/spring is our winter. Although...we are to get RAIN the next 3 days. Exciting!!! I've brought fire wood in and am ready for my 3 days of winter.

    Ah, the ocean, soothes the soul and clears the mind. The stacked rocks are amazing, I'm sure the Chairman and friends will get the hang of stacking with no trouble at all. You may have to keep those nice flat stones away from the RLC, they're great for sliding across the floors and under the couch.
