Amy Winehouse ('Amy-Blue')

Amy Jade Winehouse (1983-2011), Singer and songwriter.

This portrait is a commemorative work made after Winehouse's death, and is derived from one of the many photographs available of the singer in the media. The translucent blue colours refer to Winehouse's troubled life, and also her musical influences.
