September 13, 2007: Artist reproduces great works on an Etch-A-Sketch
http://cellar.org/2007/eas1.jpg
A lurker whose name didn't match up with any Cellar userids sent this along via the Mail. Artist Jeff Gagliardi never had an Etch-A-Sketch as a child. But when he grew up he found that he had a natural talent at drawing with it, and at the Mail story are 11 of his creations, including the world's most known paintings as well as a King of Hearts, a Chuck Berry, a Taj Mahal and perhaps most interesting, a self-portrait.

Interestingly, he's not just "copying" them onto a new medium, he is actually re-illustrating the images. Making editorial decisions.
|
Maybe he was afraid of getting sued.

damn that would be difficult for obvious reasons PLUS factor in it has to be one continous line and there's some hardcore brain power involved, not just artistic ability.

If it's really Art, where's the naked women?

Half way through, the lines got all shaky.

Hmmph! I once did a self portrait with a Mister Potatohead.

Ya know...I have no job. I have no girlfriend. I have no friends. I have no hobbies. And I don't have the kind of time on my hands it would take to etch those sketches.:right:

So many people with so much goddamn spare time. Pisses me off.

It would just kill me if someone walked up, said, "Let me see that" and shook the heck out of it. Isn't that the whole idea of Etch-a-Sketch?? :mecry:
