I am trying to make an extruded version of this image of Gary Smith,

enter image description here

so I used GIMP to cut him out of the picture and exported the path as an SVG file, and imported it to blender and set it as 2D. But when I try to texture it, I get a completely black model.

enter image description here

How do I texture it?
