Artist Description:  Perhaps one the biggest debut albums o fall time. There is something about a debit album that gets me excited. The artist is giving everything to get their songs out, they often have a lifetime of ideas and putting them all on the line with a debut album, essentially they will make it or break it with this one shot. I have created quite a few debut albums in this album series. Jimi Hendrix, Guns N Roses, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Sex Pistols, all amazing debut albums. For Amy Winehouse I wanted to add a few special details. I started by stitching tonal black hearts in yarn over the stark black background and then for Amy herself sitting in the tub I used over 40 colors of rayon thread to get all of the details in her face and hair. The piece was finished with a large logo patch that was embroidered and then add as collage to the album at the end.
