11 Stage Techniques in Beach Sand Sculptures to Thrill your Team
- Teams Brain Storm to Formulate an image, sketch in the sand or plan your design.
- Gather the sand. Packing, pounding and compacting the sand. Use extra water to drain through the sand and bond the sandy quartz grains.
The squarer the sand, the better the bond as the quartz crystals are less like to slide by one another. Mixing sand with an environmentally safe binder like flour can make it stick better. Don’t cheat and use cement powder on the beach. - Make the form-work 30-40% larger than the intended sculpture. That way you can shave off the excess. Eventually revealing your final design with minimal collapse.
- Use a spatula, your hands or any implement like kitchen tools or invest in a Thrill Event and our specialist facilitation / teaching skills and sculpting tools.
- Now start cutting away the excess of your design from the top. Working down gradually and carefully. Compact and moisten loose areas before they crumble away.
- Position yourself and accurately refine your shaping, holes and key features.
- Brush away unnecessary sand and clean the design, contrasting the surrounds.
- A great tip is to slightly undercut and create a relief. This way providing a better 3D form to be admired. Here shadow is your friend. Like a shark rising from the dark ocean depths. Or in this teams case a Darth Vader rising from the sands at Balmoral Beach in a Star Wars theme.
- Fill in any holes for safety, so passers and the public admiring your work don’t trip into an abyss.
- Admire your sculpture with others. Photographing and sharing your creation. Allow kids to ride, jump and play with your temporary masterpiece. Don’t forget to post team images to Thrill team events facebook pages.
- Top it off with a rewarding refreshing celebratory drink to toast your success at the Thrill beach events sand bar.
Creative Ideas for Groups, Artists and Team Building and Sculpting the Sands
- Large marine animals and sea creatures like Sharks, Whales, Turtles, Dolphins, Seals, Octopus, Crocodiles and Dugongs.
- Fun sculptures such as Mermaids, Unicorns, Monsters, Mythical Creatures and Cakes that you can decorate.
- Visually exciting motifs, business logos and brands are terrific for corporate groups to demonstrate their achievements.
- Common items like a couch, handbag, chair or a car that are an anomaly to the beach landscape.
- Funny caricatures of yourself, politicians, animals like ducks, platypus or even riding horses.
- The more interactive your sculpture the better.
- Try an aeroplane, boat or pirate ship that you or kids can climb into and imagine you are on the 7 seas being a pirate walking the plank or sailing to exotic destinations!
- Sand Castles – yes, they’re still the best, dripping wet sand into spires. Digging moats, draw bridges.
- Let your imagination go wild and takes you back to your childhood dreams.
- Remember that just getting into it. Starting and giving it a go will bring out great results. Increase personal satisfaction of an enjoyable job well done with teamwork, collaboratively.
- Be amazed at the transition of a value, theme or idea.
Amazing Sand Sculptures can be effectively created with a well functioning team of people collaborating. Creating a synergy of ideas into a symbol of success.
Presentations of your Sand Sculpture can be served up with celebratory champagne and nibbles at the sand bar.
