This piece is a portrait collage of Billie Holiday made from painted texture Acrylic paper that I cut into various shapes to make the visage of Billie Holiday. It was an experimental piece that I enjoyed creating.
In April 2020, I received an email congratulating me for being accepted into the Society of Illustrator's Student Scholarship Competition. A professor of mine had entered a piece of mine without me knowing, so this turned out to be a shock to me.
It is featured in the SOI Student Scholarship Online Exhibition (May 2020) and in their Catalog for the exhibition.
