Sandwritten Proposals

Andres Amador Creates Huge Beach Mural to Help a Client Pop the Question

Marriage proposals can be extremely romantic when elaborately executed, and that's exactly what Jason Fordley's proposal was thanks to Andres Amador. Fordley commissioned the sand mural artist to create a huge and intricate beach art piece for his then-girlfriend Kelly Riplinger. She's now his fiance, which is no surprise: I really don't think anyone would have said no to this special proposal.

Jason Fordley approached Andres Amador because earlier in his relationship with Riplinger, they had encountered him one day working on a mural in San Francisco. Since it was a special memory, Andres Amador agreed to create a one-of-a-kind proposal for the happy couple.

Funny enough, Andres Amador's mural was so large, Riplinger had to climb on a rock to read it. Too cute.
