Zeff brings delight to those promenading along Bloubergstrand Beach opposite Ons Huisie with his elaborate sand sculptures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zeff says he felt compelled to teach others (not only children) this craft. \u201cI don\u2019t only teach children but adults too.

That\u2019s why it works so well for them. It is also a marvellous way to teach children three-dimensional art,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zeff, like many others, was hit hard by the covid pandemic and had to find new ways to earn an income. He stole the hearts of many on the beachfront with his creations and is well-known for sculptures of sea creatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zeff says work usually streams in during the summer season.
