Quilts in the Snow and Castles in the Sand -- Amazing Art!!
![]() |
| Artist Simon Beck must really love the cold weather! Along the frozen lakes of
Savoie, France, he spends days plodding through the snow in raquettes
(snowshoes), creating these sensational patterns of snow art. Working for 5-9
hours a day, each final piece is typically the size of three soccer fields! The
geometric forms range in mathematical patterns and shapes that create stunning,
sometimes 3D, designs when viewed from higher levels. How long these magnificent geometric forms survive is completely dependent on the weather. Beck designs and redesigns the patterns as new snow falls, sometimes unable to finish a piece due to significant overnight accumulations. Interestingly enough, he said, 'The main reason for making them was because I can no longer run properly due to problems with my feet, so plodding about on level snow is the least painful way of getting exercise. Gradually, the reason has become photographing them, and I am considering buying a better camera. Spectacular art for the sake of exercise!http://www.mymodernmet.com/profiles/blogs/simon-beck-snow-art> |
Amazing Castles in the Sand! These are from an event that is held every summer in Cannon Beach, Oregon! They only last for one day -- until the tide comes in!

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
