Original artwork description:

Billy Holiday was a famous singer. Her voice was incredible, she was born in 1915 and died in 1959.

I used to listen to her songs when I was a child and sometimes melancholic. She was most of her life addicted to drugs and perspecuted by the FBI and the police, life did not treat her so well, men neither.

But she was a strong, a legendary woman, humankind will remember her voice forever.
I want to contribute to this, us to remember her in colours, with all her beauty and a smile. When I made this collage, I was listening to "Good morning heartache" or "Strange fruit" or "I'll be seeing you." To capture this contrast was my main ambition, to mix sadness with colours. Her beautiful smile with her voice and the lyrics. To capture both. To show the wonderful woman behind the music.
