Etch-A-Sketch Master

I grew up in the late 60s and early 70s. Back then, it seemed like every kid, at one point in their kidhood, was presented with an Etch-A-Sketch as a gift. It was fantastic how you could manipulate two small knobs and produce an etching in silver powder that was your own personal masterpiece...until a sibling or some other individual with no conception of fine art grabbed your one-of-a-kind design, and shook it away into so many particles of inspirational dust again. Back to the tabula rasa.

Well, there's playing with an Etch-A-Sketch, and then there's mastering it. Don't think you can really create art on one? Check out the work of George Vlosich III on his website Etched In Time. You will be amazed. And you will find a new definition of the word "patience".
