Posted on Friday 12th December, 2008 by Chris in Etch A Sketch
Shana got me an Etch A Sketch as an early Christmas present. It’s is fine for drawing straight lines, but curves and circles (especially if you want them to be at all regular in shape) present more of a challenge. After only a couple of days’ practice, though, I have now mastered the art of manipulating the aluminum powders hidden within the device and have produced the holy grail of Etch A Sketch users: an ampersand. I shall leave it to you to fathom exactly how I accomplished this feat. It could’ve been sheer artistic skill; or fantastic hand-eye coordination.
Or maybe it was all down to great knob control!
