Illustrator beautifully recreates iconic scenes from Beyoncé's 'Lemonade'
Okay, Beyhive, get your crayons in formation.
Along with a strong message of empowerment, Beyoncé's Lemonade has inspired everything from rumors to recipes, and more recently, some gorgeous illustrations by Jessie Kanelos Weiner, a 30-year-old illustrator from Paris.

Weiner spoke with Mashable via email to discuss her stunning recreations of key scenes from Beyoncé's visual album.
"I've been a professional illustrator for four years. I mostly work in watercolor exploring food culture and lifestyle," she said. "I always strive to create engaging coloring pages because the genre can be a bit static sometimes."
Weiner said that she is a huge Beyoncé fan and, "loved the horizontal narrative of Lemonade."
Her initial idea was to create a double coloring page for each song, "tracking the evolution of emotions on the whole visual album," but she "ended up doing more of a greatest hits with five pages."
Weiner's illustrations intricately capture some of the most powerful symbols, fashion statements, and emotions from the visual album. Weiner even sent Mashable a lemonade-inspired illustration she had in her archives that we're sure would make Beyoncé proud.
