Beauty & the Beast
This was the winning sculpture in the 2007 "Tournament of Champions."
This "Grandmasters" competition held annually in British Columbia
was only open to previous medal winners from the prior two decades
editions of the World Championships of Sand Sculpture. The show
featured 18 international teams of two master sculptors, each. With
this design, Rich Varano defended his first place title (previously w/ Fralich
2006) by selecting Pavel Zadanyuk
of Moscow, as his partner. Zadanyuk is classically trained in the Russian
school of art, and has also won numerous other international awards. Specs: The sculpture was 33 tons, teen feet tall, and took five days to sculpt (68 man hours). An additional 16 man hours was needed for pre sculpting prep work. It was on display for four months. [ HOME
