Brilliant. And touching, too.
It's not so much her painting with sand as it is her "conducting" the sand like a maestro conducts an orchestra. She's amazing.
The NFB has dozens of animation shorts in their vaults involving creation with sand but this! this is of a different order altogether.
And pulling in Metallica's Nothing Else Matters at the end was a stroke of creative genius. (The band's Enter Sandman would not have been more appropriate.)
Thanks for posting this, Obvious Li. I've had my morning tear; now I can go have my cup of coffee. ;)

CC and I have our differences (and they appear to be major) but one thing I've always said about her, and I mean it, is that she has a lot of artistic talent. Her sculptures are extremely pleasing to the eye. They are very sensuous.
