Joe Mangrum sand paintings







































Watching a sand painting come to life on Sunday in NYC.

"It's about bringing art out to people that are intimidated by galleries, that aren't educated about art or feel like that can't afford a museum," says artist Joe Mangrum. His artwork is in the style of many cultural traditions from around the globe, including Tibetan Mandalas, African sand painting, Indian rangoli, and Native American sand painting from the Navajo and Hopi cultures.
