Sade Adu, 2022
Helen Folasade Adu CBE, known professionally as Sade Adu or simply Sade, is a Nigerian-born British singer known for her sophisticated blend of soul, funk, jazz, and Afro-Cuban rhythms. One of the most successful British female artists in history, she is often recognised as an influence on contemporary music.
This piece was created in exactly 2 weeks using Faber Castel “Polychromos” colored pencils and Skin Toned pan pastels. Along with the finished product, I’ve added some “work in progress/trust the process” photos.
Below is a YouTube link to one of my favorite songs by her. Enjoy! 😊
