Multifaceted artist Naturel is celebrating The Notorious B.I.G.’s birthday this May 21 with a limited edition print release entitled Picasso Biggie (12” x 12”). The signed and numbered edition features an abstract-meets-figurative composition in vivid colors while portraying the late hip hop legend’s likeness. The artwork also pays homage to Pablo Picasso’s Cubist period with the artist’s use of geometric shapes and patterns in the printed visual.
