    high school artist's winning pic predicts bin laden capture

     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     artsyteacher witnessed a bizarre coincidence when one of her students drew this depiction of bin Laden’s capture the day before bin Laden’s death was announced. The chalk drawing was part the Sidewalk Arts Festival, held by The Savannah College of Art and Design. Harper says her student had been discussing bin Laden in one of his classes. He couldn’t remember the last time he heard bin Laden’s name mentioned and thought his capture would make everyone happy. The student’s drawing won honorable mention at the annual festival.
    - nhieatt, CNN iReport producer

    Every spring, Savannah College of Art and Design hosts a Sidewalk Arts Festival.  This year, last SATURDAY, I took 15 of my students.  One of them won in the prospective student category for his depiction of Osama being captured.  Bizarre, right?
