Well she was asking for it...
I was a smart arse at school and if I'd spent as much time actually doing the work that was required as I did finding work arounds for doing as little as possible I probably would have made something more of myself. C'est la vie.

I digress, my class got a new art teacher in year 8 who took us to the Tate. We didn't go on many trips (t'was a 'naughty' school) and I could go into lots of stories about the fun that was had but I shall save them for another QOTW.
We were given the image challenge, sorry, homework of recreating something we'd seen at the gallery. We could paint it, sketch it, make a model-anything we wanted. So I did a collage. Of this:

As I said, she was asking for it, wasn't she?

Sorry about the link-first timer-doesn't know how to put pictures on yet!

'Blue' being a particularly good one!
Or I could have photographed my bedroom and called it venus-of-the-rags. But it had to be something we'd seen at the Tate. :)
