After completing his first work, he climbed to the top of the cliff to take pictures, inspiring himself to continue creating art.
Manuel Frolich said: “I start from sketching my design ideas on my desk with a ruler and compass. After completing the drawing on paper, I plan to go to the beach, calculate the time to draw. This is very Due to the influence of the tide, I had to calculate and complete the picture before the tide rose”.
He sketches his works in advance to visualize and plan how to represent all the drawings in the sand. Each sketch, Manuel Frolich completes in between 3 and 4 hours.
