Many of us first got to know Uzo Aduba from her nuanced, moving, and comedic portrayal of Crazy Eyes in the Netflix binge-watching phenomenon, Orange is the New Black.

Aduba has already won an Emmy for her incredible performance as inmate Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren.

When OITNB first entered our cultural consciousness, a lot of viewers noted their excitement and surprise over Uzo Aduba’s glamorous real life appearance compared to that of her character.

That audience reaction is a testament to Aduba’s acting talent, and her ability to fully transform into an almost unrecognizable character. Fans have become even more acquainted with Aduba’s non-Crazy Eyes persona as she lands on coveted magazine covers.

You never forget your first September Issue. To say that I'm excited to share this cover of @essence does not "cover" it. I am over the moon! This magazine has served as a beacon and mirror, bridging the many faces and varied stories surrounding us, fully completing the narrative of what accomplished women look like. Women I would find myself inspired and uplifted by, both as a girl and as a woman. For me, Essence represents an avenue for dreaming and aspiration. Thank you, Essence; for having me for this September Fashion Issue, for making me part of your ever graceful legacy, for all that you've encouraged out of me and countless others. It is truly an honor. And, to the girls reading, both big and small: I hope you always remain a dreamer. A big dreamer, a "to the sky's the limit" dreamer. Continue to stay inspired, and know that you are worthy of any and all things that are possible in this life! Love and more love. xxoU #EssenceMag #blackandbeautiful Thank you to these brilliant loving artists for an amazing day: Photographer: @dennisleupold Journalist: @lolaogunnaike Styling: @cristinaehrlich Hair: @lacyredway Makeup: @dilokritbarose Nails: @deborahlippman

And today on Instagram, Uzo posted some amazing fan art by Aline Lima, depicting Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren and Aduba herself in one side-by-side pencil illustration.

We absolutely agree with Uzo that the artwork is #dope, as it is such a strong visual example of Aduba’s striking ability to fully become whoever she is portraying.
