Classic Rock


Here’s a quickie.  This is one of three classic album covers I’m working on for a local law office.  I’ll also be taking on Jimi Hendrix: Crash Landing, and The Eagles: Farewell – Live from Melbourne.

This one’s still a work in-progress, but I like how it’s coming along.  I’m adding a bit of my own funk to it along the way just to have some fun.  It can be a bit liberating not having to think much about the composition, etc.  I can focus on my technique, play around with the paint a bit, and get wrapped up in the details.  I DO wish I’d have sanded my surface a bit more though.  The fine work is getting a little frustrating.  Live and learn.

Cheers,

    Hi Rob,

    Very Nice. I guess you should be glad you are not doing the cover from “Disraeli Gears”.
