Love is a Losing Game (Amy Winehouse)

Inspired by Amy Winehouse and the iconic Back to Black album, this piece begins on a chalkboard base, layered with graffiti love symbols and hidden gems throughout.

Printed onto vinyl mounted hardboard, enhanced with hand painted gold foil and vivid acrylic paints, and finally sealed with a shimmering layer of gold glitter resin, the artwork radiates her defiant spirit and unapologetic creativity.

The artwork is accentuated by a beautiful black float frame.
