We’re all familiar with Etch-A-Sketch but have you ever heard of someone creating works of art with it? The Vlosich brothers, George and Greg, grew up using Etch-A-Sketch to improve their artistic abilities.
George and Greg were raised on art and sports by their dad. As the brothers grew up they honed their art skills by drawing lifelike Etch-A-Sketches of their favorite athletes and sports stars!
