Description
Vintage POP art celebrating the beauty and life of Billy Holiday. SHE is ONE OF A KIND. SHE sings the SONG that moves the heart of man. SHE is TIMELESS. SHE is JAZZ!
Artist Note - "When I started this series, I wanted to pay homage to some great women. Billie was ahead of her time. I remember the first time I heard Strange Fruit - The song is powerful in this time, but I think about the time in which she lived - not only a black performer singing this song in front of a white audiences of the day, but a woman in a culture where women were silent. Her bravery and power to sing her truth is nothing short of awe inspiring. And no one has a voice like hers!"

And no one could do HER more justice, Ken. You’ve given us her soul, and she will be at peace forevermore. So brilliant your creativity, your reverence, and all who love her, will thank you. Stunning! Such intensity, palpable, as if you’ve known her, though you do! Yourself a musician! Kudos, admira, thanks! f.v, VIVA
