Using only a simple garden rake, Dubai-based artist Nathaniel Alapide draws enormous calligraphic strokes across beaches and deserts every morning -- and his large-scale sand art has won him a Guinness World Record.
People have been making marks in the sand throughout history. For some, it's a meditative practice. For most, it's a way to sign your name on a vacation beach. For Dubai-based Filipino artist Nathaniel Alapide, it's how he became a Guinness World Record holder.
The average drawing for Alapide is around 20 meters squared."Sometimes I'll do a work that will take an hour," he said."Or sometimes I work every day for hours to create."Alapide's sand art began in 2014, when he sketched a tree in tribute to his late grandmother into an expanse of sand on Umm Suqeim Beach, in the shadow of the iconic wave-shaped Jumeirah Beach Hotel.
Though he has crafted a career from the practice, Alapide says creating an artwork from sand isn't without its challenges.
