Two weeks ago I came across a woman finishing a portrait of Amy Winehouse on the wall of Boulangerie Le Mortier, at the corner of Vijzelgracht and Fokke Simonszstraat in Amsterdam’s Centrum district.

Hi Rona, what an amazing moment this is, finishing a graffiti tribute to Amy Winehouse. It’s very impressive artwork, and catching the artist at work on it was a real coup! Doing something this outstanding with spray cans is mind-boggling, to say the least. Kudos for capturing this! All the best, Lloyd

Great capture – there is so much to contemplate in this photo…the artist(s), the tagging, the turn sign pointing at the portrait, the boulangerie, the bike – rich!

Got to agree with Cardinal. And all the other commenters. Amy was a true artist and so is the person behind the spray can! Lucky you to have captured it.

Yup! All been said. A very perceptive piece of artwork – you can see the tragedy and defiance in that face – and what a picture!
