Etch-A-What?

Not only have i managed to waste my arvo watching silly youtube vids that Poster Boy has sent me, which i must say TOTALLY made my day. Unfortunately, i cannot share these vids with you as that would be too cruel as i would feel slightly guilty for my non-stop laughter, not because they were funny but merely out of embarrassment.

But once that was over, i tried my best to get back into the swing of work but somehow got distracted once again. For some reason, i started thinking of the good ole' Etch-A-Sketch. I'm sure i had one when i was younger but seeing that i have no recollection of anything that remotely resembles anything creative, i'm sure my love for it was short lived.

I never really had much patience with things that was time consuming but now that i think about it, i wouldn't mind owning one.

Then i came across Etched in Time a site of this guy, George Vlosich III, who has managed to recreate images with the use of an Etch-A-Sketch that relies on one continuous line. Apparently spending 60-70 hours on each unique piece!

I on the other hand, spent 10 minutes with my creation and that was already stressing me out. But if you have the patience or the need to procrastinate just a LITTLE BIT MORE, there's an online Etch-A-Sketch screen for you to have a play with. And if you suddenly realise you've got some talent, i THINK they're selling the Etch-A-Sketch boards at Toys R Us. So instead of taking up knitting, i might consider adding one of these to my collection of "what was i thinking" items.
