Dominick Cocozza, 17, of Virginia made the painting － titled "Immigration" － which features two concerned-looking children holding the sign. "I had seen lots of pictures of kids carrying signs and stuff," he said. "So I thought by doing this one, I could mix the message in with my artistic abilities and capture that moment."

Rep. Don Beyer announced Cocozza’s piece as the winner from his district at a reception Monday.

聯邦眾議員唐．貝耶週一在接待會上宣布，科卡察的畫是來自他選區的得獎作品。

In a statement to CNN, Beyer congratulated Cocozza and said he looked forward to having the painting in the Capitol.
