What was the most challenging part?
The most challenging part of doing this project was finding colors to match the image. I didn't have a lot of blues to match Eddie's shirt and I only had so many skin-colored shirts. Aligning my work to match the structural positioning of Eddie was another difficult factor of this project. Overall, this project was really fun to do.
Why did you choose to do the imagery you did?
Eddie was an inspiration to many, including me. With his passing a few months ago, I thought it would be fun to recreate one of my favorite pictures of him. I loved the variety of colors in the photo, along with the fact that I did indeed have clothes with the same colors in the picture. I chose this image because I thought it would be exciting, yet challenging to recreate.
