The picture above was taken on Friday while the artist was at work. The four at the right were taken on Sunday afternoon after the competition was complete. Although this was a favorite among many Golfviewers, it did not make the final list of winners.
Again, the picture above was taken during construction.
And, again, although this work was a favorite, it was not mentioned among the winners.
Here is a picture of the detail at the rear of the sculpture.
The artist at work on Friday, creating a very clever game show sculpture.
Alas, this one was also not a winner. But the Golfview team (right) turned heads Sunday.
Now that's a sand castle!!
Another favorite, Nature's Dance, shown left and above was not among the winners.
Pirates and buried treasure...sorry, no prize.

A NASCAR motif did not help this artist win.
(below) Sea creatures are a big part of the show.
Music City (far left) and the "other white meat" weren't winners, but the lad in the middle (above) bringing me a beer was Best in Show.
The artist (left) is working on an extensive rendition of old Rome. (above) The finished work as seen on Sunday. (right) Another example of the intricate detail that some sculptors put into their work.
(below) GV team documents a sculpture and reinforces for the long walk to the Outrigger.
