將彩沙、取自礦物或水晶的粉末顏料，或自其他天然或合成顏料，灑至表面創作而成的固定或不固定圖像。沙畫通常不在獨立的基底材料上繪製，而是在地面或地板上創作。北美印地安人（如納瓦霍人、普埃布洛人、祖尼人）、澳洲原住民、藏人、日本人及各國的印度教人士等常將不固定式的沙畫用於宗教或治療儀式之中。沙畫也有固定形式，通常為販售給觀光客的小型作品。

英文....	Designs created by pouring colored sands, powdered pigments from minerals or crystals, or pigments from other natural or synthetic sources onto a surface to make a fixed or unfixed image. They are often made on the ground or the floor rather than on a separate support. Unfixed sand paintings are created or used in religious and healing rituals by various groups, including Navajo, Pueblo, and Zuni in North America, Australian Aborigines, Tibetans, Japanese, and Hindus in various nations. Sand paintings may be fixed, often with works of relatively small size for sale to the tourist trade.
