Help Take Joe Mangrum’s Sand Paintings To The Next Level

Joe Mangrum Sand Painting

Over the last year our friend Joe Mangrum has created over 160 beautiful sand paintings around New York City. He recently setup a Kickstarter project to raise money for equipment upgrades to help take his art to the next level.

The purpose of this fundraising effort is to take my work up a notch and buy the equipment I need to diversify my work and let my imagination run wild with the same stream of consciousness used to create my one of a kind sand works in the street. It will bring a whole new dimension to my work and give me tools I need to explore new mediums and create work like you have never seen before.
