We had one in the house growing up, and I’m the youngest of five, so the Etch A Sketch was one of those toys that all of my siblings before me had played with.
Here’s what to know about this unconventional artist. You can even buy an Etch A Sketched version of your family portrait via her Etsy shop. Labowitch, who goes by Princess Etch A Sketch and lives in Logan Square, is a full-time artist who sketches famous pieces of art and architecture around Chicago, from the Bean to A Sunday on La Grande Jatte. Just look for the 25-year-old Detroit native hovering over a classic toy: the Etch A Sketch. On any given day, you might find Jane Labowitch sitting near the Bean or on a bench at the Art Institute.
