Book Cover Design: Nina Simone

My book design is on Nina Simone a name that recently I heard a lot of from her acclaimed documentary to her influential music. I felt compelled to create my book cover based on this artist because of her popularity and how much she is still a notable artist to this day. I already recognized a couple of her songs without even realizing it. I created connection to this project and my personal curiosity of why Nina Simone? What has made her so famous? and why does her name live on to this day? questions that I answered and took away so much more.
