Amy Winehouse?
I think it looks like Amy… a healthy Amy with full cheeks.
She had full lips, tattoos, dark-lined mascara eyes and often a big flower in her hair.
She held her chin behind her wrist, at times.
Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong wrote I Heard It Through the Grapevine in 1966. The next year, Motown stars Gladys Knight and the Pips had a #2 Billboard Hit with it.
In 2006, Amy and Paul Weller did a fabulous live version. I love the juxtaposition between Amy’s brave blues/jazz vocals and Paul’s straight ahead performance.
I drew Amy a couple of years ago for Holly and my series on Rock Stars.
