Reading in Bed

Description

This was an assignment for an art class I had when I was 16. For the life of me I can't remember the topic. Within about three weeks my teacher had sent it off to the scholastic's art and writing awards contest, and within months it'd won first place not only for my region but also on that national level.

Because of this we were invited to attend a special awards ceremony in Carnegie Hall in NYC, as well as to see it on display that summer in the Corcoran museum of art in Washington DC, just a jaunt from the white house.

This is mixed media on a crappy piece of cardboard I found. I started with painting an underpainting and then decided to draw on top of it with charcoal, pasting in pieces of paper and fabric along the way.
