Last weekend Bill and I went to see Aretha Franklin at the Wang Center in Boston. The Queen of Soul put on an amazing performance! What a great show! The orchestra was excellent and Aretha's voice can only be described as an incredible instrument. A very moving evening!
I was thinking about it today and made this Aretha paper cutting after finding the perfect color of glitter paper to match the gown she wore! Not sure how good the resemblance is and the photo is a bit wonky, but it was a fun project!

Amazing Judy! Look how skinny that microphone cord is! How in the world do you adhere that to the piece without getting glue all over.
This made my morning! I knew it was her before I read your post. I bet the concert was incredible!
Oh Judy, you really captured the feeling of Aretha! I love her music, how wonderful for you that you were able to see her in concert!
I knew it was her too before I read the post! What an amazing concert that must have been. I love her glitter dress!
This papercut is a stunning observation. Well done to you! I love the glittery dress that she is wearing too!!!
