Sagamore's Sandtastic Sand Castle is Complete

Where: 1671 Collins Ave. [map], Miami Beach, FL, United States, 33139

Lo and Behold, the Sandtastic Sand Sphinx designed by Olaf Bruening.

The sandcastle masterpiece/artwork has been fully completed and is now on display on the beach behind the Sagamore Hotel in Miami Beach. As we told you the other day, Bruening and his team were being filmed via the hotel website's live webcam as they began building the sand art. And this isn't just some regular ole' sandcastle. It's a girl wearing a thong bikini with a "Paul Klee-inspired face." Way cool.

The work was commissioned by the hotel's owners in conjunction with the Art Basel art fair. Let's just hope they have major security around this sculpture.

Another picture is after the jump.
