Art Is Power Vol. I — Billie's Blues Canvas Tote
Original artwork by Antionette Simmons Hodges. Designed for collectors, art lovers, and those who believe art belongs beyond the gallery wall.
About the Artwork
The same cut-and-paste collage portrait that lives on the Billie's Blues Tee — now on a heavyweight canvas tote you carry everywhere. Ransom-note typography, painterly blue tones, Lady Day rendered the way she deserves: soulful, irreverent, and unmistakable. Billie Holiday didn't just sing the blues — she lived inside them and gave them back to us as something holy.
This is not a novelty bag with a printed patch. The design wraps fully around the canvas — front and back — so the art is visible no matter how you carry it. At the farmers market, the gallery opening, the HBCU homecoming, the grocery run. It goes everywhere and it says something every time.
Details:
- Heavyweight 12 oz natural cotton canvas
- Printed both sides — full DTG wrap
- 14.5" × 15.5" — fits everything, fits everywhere
- Reinforced handles — comfortable to carry fully loaded
- Natural colorway
Save $14 when you pair it with the matching Billie's Blues Mug in The Gift Set.
