This is a painting referencing Nina Simone and her song Backlash Blues - I decided to explore the song and music in the style of my current series, the Subway Sonnets. Nina Simone was mesmerizing to listen to as I worked on this piece, enjoying many other songs of hers as well. I painted and wrote the lyrics all over the background, layered with thin wash of paint and newspaper and then painted over again so they all peak through. There are images of nina and little things layered into the surface that those who love Ms. Simone will recognize. The work is created on a museum wrapped (2 1/2" profile) canvas and ready to hang, sealed with a UV protective gloss varnish.
