Etch-A-Sketcher looking for work

[Mr. Teatime]

You can shake my hand, but not my art

I picked up an etch-a-sketch last year and, after a few minutes of playing with it, realized I can do more than just boxes and stair-steps (like when I was a kid). My first project, The Flagraising at Iwo Jima, was good but I didn't get a digital picture, so it wasn't saved. I'm now 18 and I did this one, "The Creation of Adam." Please critique my replica.
Also, does anyone know if there's a market for this kind of thing? I'd love to have a studio Etch-a-Sketch thing going on, but who would buy?

Mr.Teatime- Yes there is a market for your work. Keep at it. I saw a guy on a tv show not to long ago that was making real good money at it. To save the picture he would gently take it apart and remove the extra graphite and the drawing mechanism,then put it back together.He had everything from Micheal Jordan to the Washington Monument.
Great Work,Akkid

This really gives me a lift, what a novel thing to see here , yep, I bet you could end up on Leno with some luck...pretty cool!

i don't know if anyone here knows about the theory concerning this painting but i'll say it anyway. god is in the shape of a human brain. it is believed that by this michalengelo (spelling?) meant that man created god. this can be debated however i don't think it is any coincidence the similarities between the shape of god and his gowns and a human brain. i just thought that was really cool. hey i use to have one of those little devices that allowed you to save multiple low bit images and make them animate on a small screen. does anyone remember those?

hopefully you buy a new etchasketch for each piece. (how much do they cost anyway?

after completion hopefully you jam the dials and the erase system somehow.

fantastic work.

clever the way the edges of the work become the track upon which the one line describes and connects separate objects.

wow.
