Hi everyone ~ wavey

For anyone who hasn't already had a chance to see The Sandman perform, here is a link to an 8 minute video of him at work.

The video clip starts a bit slow with his first drawings but then picks up into a very very lovely performance as his work continues. I guarantee you, it is mesmerizing! Particularly when you realize he is doing it ALL with his bare hand and a bit of sand on a light box. There is one moment near the end that makes me weep each time, it is so lovely.

That guy can do more with his bare hand and some sand that many others can't do with all the best equipment there is...

A little flick of his pinky finger and something wonderful appears.

It's magical.

I would love to see him in person.

What, Afgrey, no dancing banana?

Whenever I see the word "KEWL" I think of your little banana...

Gotta love that banana!! Thanks, afgrey.

You know, anyone who comes in my house HAS to sit down and watch this video. Everybody just gets so amazed and touched by it... even the most unlikely people.

I'm glad you guys are enjoying it too.
