Etch-a-Kvetch

Posted on September 5, 2003 by glasscastle

I used to be pretty good at using one of these things, at least when I was
drawing staircases or Mayan pyramids. There always seemed to be one in
the car when the P’s loaded up for family vacations.  By the end
of the trip the thing had usually been taken apart in a vain attempt
to jumpstart careers as Etch-a-Sketch repair technicians.

This guy, George Vlosich, definitely takes his etch-a-sketching seriously.  One
of his drawings takes up to 70 hours.  He specialized in Sports
and Political figures.  His site contains many examples of his work
as well as fascinating details of the creative process, although the
overall impression is of a guy with a lot of time on his hands. But hey,
art is in the eye of the beholder.

    Holy cow, that’s crazy! You would have to have a steady hand and a lot of patience to do this type of work. The most I can do on an etch a sketch is, like you said, draw a staircase.
