    GEORGE VLOSICH - Etch-A-Sketch Man
     
     
     
    This is about the Etch-A-Sketch artist George Vlosich.  I can always remember Etch-A-Sketches when I was a kid.  I can remember my parents buying me one every year for christmas.  But I could never do anything on them, and still can't.  When I came across this artist, I was amazed what he could achieve with an Etch-A-Sketch.  Apparently he started when he was just 10 years old.  He went to Washington with his Etch-A-Sketch and drew the capital on it, and that's how it all started.  Now at 27 he's world famous.  His subjects range from portraits of famous people to baseball players.  He has been on TV and radio and featured in over 250 newspapers all over the world.  Apparently it takes him around 50 to 55 hours to complete a picture.  Today, he still does demos of his work to people at the cooperstown baseball of fame, prints and originals are for sale.
     
    I have to say not anybody can do this type of art, me for one.  But it's amazing what people can do with different things you wouldn't expect from.  Enjoy his work.
