    Seems like the Drone is just as important for the artwork as the sand is for viewing the art.

    It would be amazing for him to go out on to golf courses after night time rain and do smaller scale patterns in the sand traps, they could become the new “crop circles” and I personally think it would be cool as all get out.

    This series is great but we’re coming up on a calendar year since a woman’s been featured on it. Any chance that’ll change any time soon? It’s embarrassing to show the series to friends and have an endless stream of “This Guy” titles.

    • Andres Amador

      I actually did! I did a tracing of the design and then they filmed Allessia drawing it in. That was a fun project and a great movie to be a part of in a peripheral way.
