Washington Square- Sand Man

To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild flower
, Hold 
infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour.
Greenwich Village's Golden Age and of the artists, rebels, and eccentrics who make the Village a cultural phenomenon are still present, even on a rainy night Cowboy Sherpa and Sand Painting Artist Joe Mangrum does the heavy lifting.

In the tradition of Tantric Buddhism, painting with colored sand ranks as one of the most unique and exquisite. These  "mandala of colored powders." are made with millions of grains of sand are painstakingly laid into place on a flat platform over a period of days or weeks.
