Arista Records commissioned me to do this portrait of Aretha Franklin as proposed album art for a Rose is Still a Rose. A photo was chosen instead but it was an honour to paint such an incredible artist.

I was lucky to grow up with a father who exposed me to female vocalists like Aretha Franklin at a very young age so I had spend some time last night listening to her and painting this tribute // RIP Aretha💔

"Being the queen is not all about singing... It has much to do with your service to people. And your social contributions to your own community and your civic contributions, as well" Thank you Aretha Franklin.
