Sandcastles

A friend of mine, Hannah Emmerson, is an amazingly gifted artist who has a passion for building sandcastles.  She runs the annual competition that is on Horseshoe Bay Beach every September.  Below are just a few of her incredible builds.
Picture
23 Feb 2020 - the rocket and the alien were inspired by the news that a man who built a home-made rocket in the US died during a test flight.

16 Sept 2020 - A hurricane approaching the island inspired the "storm in a tea-cup". The ship represents the "Sea Venture" which was wrecked off the east end of the island after battling through a hurricane in 1609. She started the colonisation of the island and the story of the shipwrecked sailors inspired "The Tempest".

Hannah and her creation!

19 April 2019 - Easter combined with her fascination with the Rex family (soon to a be a book!)
