Im a big fan of Jill Scott. Her first album is always being played. What drew me to her was the refreshing sound that was missing from the radio. She had come from the place that so many people lack or hold dearly, love. In fact, her aura seems to be personified by how she dresses and holds herself. And to top it off she can write the words to the songs she sings. That means a lot to me. Her second album helped me overcome some of my own challenges. Her words in the song family reunion helped me mend my own family ties, amen. It was at that point that I need to give something back to her. Read this post:

It's been a while since I've done a portrait of her. I like this look as I think it's very fitting to her song. It's also a testament to many peoples lives. But remember, we don't fight hate with hate, That's never gotten us anywhere... ever.
