well I assume that the original drawing is larger than your scanner... but you really should photograph it flat before you frame it.. the distortion... and the refection of the lights in your room... as well as the colour of those lights... isnt the best way to showcase your art...

I know, i didn't really think about it before i took the picture. I need to fix the framing, actually, i just wanted to make sure i got it out of the hassle of my room and away from dust. when i reframe it, i was planning on getting a better picture.
and my scanner can only fit an 8x10 piece of paper, not an 18x23.

yes most scanners are sortta limiting when it comes to size

tips for photographing larger art:
do so outdoors in natural light...
not bright direct sunlight tho b/c it can wash out your image
lay your art flat on ground
brace your camera at 90 degrees above
with two hands and your strap
avoid shadows or blocking the light
