A woman traveled to India and recreated everything she saw on an Etch A Sketch

Jane Labowitch is known as Princess Etch A Sketch.

She recently went on an 8-day trip to India, which included a stop at Humayun's Tomb in Delhi.

She perfectly captured the monument on her Etch A Sketch.

She used tuk tuks to get around.

And intricately captured the covered motorized bike. She told INSIDER that it takes her anywhere from one to 10 hours to draw a sketch.

She used incredible detail to capture part of the roof of the Amer Palace Hall of Mirrors.

"As an artist, I love doing things that have not been done so going on a trip like this to chronicle it in Etch A Sketch sounded awesome," she told INSIDER.

Here's a photo of the Red Fort.

Her drawing looks effortless.

And of course she stopped at the Taj Mahal.

She said that the Taj Mahal was the hardest sketch from the trip because it was the "most detailed and required the most precision and patience to create."

She even sketched one of her guids, Shakti Rathore. "The trip was amazing because I got to see so many beautiful structures and experience a vibrant culture and eat delicious food," she said.

Since she started playing with the toy when she was four, Labowitch said she slowly started to experiment more but it wasn't always easy.

I've definitely had my moments of frustration though, especially when I've accidentally erased my work," she said. "My mistakes are less frequent now than they used to be but it's mainly because I've learned to slow down and be more patient as I work.

She said her hardest sketch ever was of Russia's St. Basil's Cathedral, which took more than 20 hours to complete.

She's done recreations of famous paintings.

And she also captures some great pop culture moments and characters.
