Wake Up Alone

This is a candid portrait of the late singer Amy Winehouse. Her song 'Wake Up Alone' stirred a lot of relatable visual imagery for me 'I stay up clean the house, at least I'm not drinking. Run around just so I don't have to think about thinking. This ache in my chest as my day is done now, the dark covers me and I cannot run now.'. I found this image online and made some alterations with other hidden meanings and song references within. This piece was really about conveying the loneliness and busybody emotions that I interpreted through her music.
