I use to hate Etch-A-Sketch. For hours on end I would try to draw something nice, but it ended up just being ugly and indecipherable. An artist I was not.
So, to see a piece of work like this done by a 18 year old kid named George Vlosich made me both green with envy and mesmerized as I looked with wonder. I remember that he gained some notoriety in the 90's which eventually led to a group of Baseball cards that showed off some of his art. Above is a insert from the 1997 Topps set of Hideo Nomo.

I pulled the Frank Thomas Etch-A-Sketch card from a pack of 1997 Topps way back then. I was pretty happy with it.
