Aretha Franklin

Gallery number - 3

Queen of Soul

R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Aretha Franklin was one of the best-selling artists of all time, with an indelible influence on music and culture. Her iconic hits, including "Respect," "Chain of Fools," "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)," "Day Dreaming," and "(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman," are timeless classics.

Aretha's impact extended far beyond her musical achievements. She was a powerful figure for Black women and played a significant role in the civil rights movement. Her voice resonated deeply during key moments in history, such as when she sang at Martin Luther King Jr.'s funeral and Barack Obama's 2009 inauguration.

Though she passed away in 2018, Aretha Franklin's legacy continues to inspire and uplift generations.

I chose orange as the main color for Aretha and purple as a contrast. Some hints of green added interest. The bright orange background signifies the excitement that Aretha brought to her performances.
