Album Cover Art
-
@ductapeguy Jan 2022
Several years ago [@lhcisco] gave me the idea to create notional album cover art in January to get the creative juices flowing ahead of FAWM. Post your album cover art here.
This year is my 10th FAWM so this is what I came up with.

@jamkar Jan 2022
Yeah, that's cool Sean!

@kanttila Jan 2022
I commissioned a cover from an artist on Fiverr called kemaltafwidh. I draw myself but I have done it less and less over the years as music became my creative outlet. So I decided to commission someone and make a cover.
It fits with my idea for this album, bringing out the drums. The character is Kaletta, who some might know from a song of the same name from last 50/90. She's certainly going to be a mainstay in my music now.
I wanted art of her playing with a winter scene outside, sort of like Rush in the "Limelight" video. I was really happy with the work the artist did and it certainly inspires me to make an album for it.

@ductapeguy excellent use of that app!

Here's one I've considered using...

@kiffa Fantastic band pic.

@bachelorb Jan 2022
Every year it seems I have to ask about coding a pic in..... I think I remembered this time :)

NOICE one DD!

@musicbymichelle Jan 2022
This is my first time participating. Hoping my album cover inspires me to great things

@scottlake Jan 2022
Might go with a version of this.

@kiffa Jan 2022
@ductapeguy Thanks! It wasn't easy to get all of the members together at one time.

@moonraccoon Jan 2022
You've probably seen this by now, Sean.
-
@stephubik Jan 2022
Don't know yet what the subject matter will be or how it will sound, so no title yet... but since I've decided to go mainly electronic this time I thought it would be a nice idea to let the computer dream the cover...

@outinpublicdrummer Jan 2022
I'm so excited and inspired by this idea! Here's my first draft, made in canva

My concept for this year. -
@kenmattsson Jan 2022
This is what I threw together for my EP (coming out this week!)

@headfirstonly Jan 2022
For the more graphically challenged, Wombo's "Dream" app can be a rich source of inspiration and amusement: https://www.wombo.art/
-
@headfirstonly Jan 2022
@odilongreen Oh man, am I on board with that concept. You have my profound sympathy, if it's drawn from personal experience. I currently have a 1.5 cm stone in my left kidney and a slightly smaller one in the right, together with a cyst...

@candle Jan 2022
That's a pretty neat site/app, @headfirstonly . Just tried it with the prompt "Memory" & got this:
The whole "Dream Trading Cards" is giving me some interesting marketing/promotional ideas… Thanks for sharing, Chris!
See You In The Shadows… -

I got to get to work on the artwork, stop me from writing too many songs before February 1st!

@scottlake Jan 2022
Emergency Room visit for my wife today. Suspected Appendicitis. They made me leave because she got a positive Covid result yesterday. While waiting I decided to open Art Studio and try out some different brushes after being inspired by some art they had hanging on the wall.

@frozenlonesome Jan 2022
This was the cover from my FAWM2021 album.
Designing my cover art along with doing videos has been a big part of my Frozen Lonesome project.

@ampersandman Jan 2022
Today during a boring video conference I started creating a series of covers, randomly laying my holiday photos over another and playing around with the blend modes. Then I also made the design. So I basically have all my song covers sorted out, this is the template. (Now updated)

@stevenwesleyguiles Jan 2022
@kanttila I LOVE the idea of creating a cover and making the album based on how cool the art is!! That's super inspiring and creative!
-
@monty Jan 2022
https://montgomedia/pandemedia This is what I came up with after last year's FAWM. -
@tabitha Jan 2022
A poorly drawn mongoose seems somehow fitting for me this year.

@wylddandelyon Jan 2022
So, I've been playing with one of those aps where you put in text and the program creates (mostly bad) art. But I got an image I like.

Edit 1-3 trying to figure why the pic wouldn't show. I think I fixed it. Edit 4: accidentally clicked on the "report this" button while trying to click on the "edit" button. Sorry folks! -
@dreamscuba Jan 2022

@wylddandelyon Jan 2022
OK, let's try this one. It's quite different from the first, but the base pic is a photo I took.

I like the first one better. -
@cblack Jan 2022
@wylddandelyon I really like that colourful one! It looks professional and intentional despite being made by code.

@johnstaples Jan 2022
-
@dreamscuba Jan 2022
@johnstaples - Nice!
-
@wylddandelyon Jan 2022
@cblack Thank you. I liked the image enough that I emailed it to myself. To make it a cover, I just used the basic windows/office photo program to trim it square and my finger on the touchpad/screen to write. I'm so frustrated that the program I used to use to add properly formatted words to photos is no longer available. This handwriting thing is messy.
I mocked up the other one real quick when I was having trouble posting the first one, to see if maybe the wombo people had some kind of coding in the image to block edited reposts, but that doesn't seem to be the issue. -
@dreamscuba Jan 2022
@wylddandelyon I just looked at this app...cool. That's my evening gone! haha...Thanks for sharing this.

@whispermouse Jan 2022
Finally bought myself an iPad a few months ago, and I've just started messing with Procreate. I think this'll be my cover this year.
-
@sw1n3flu Jan 2022
Nice one @whispermouse !

@sw1n3flu Jan 2022
And very creative @johnstaples

@vomvorton Jan 2022
it's been years since I actually got an album out of my FAWM songs and if by some chance it happens this year, I probably won't use this, but I had some time to kill so here's an album cover anyway. I think it makes a pretty bold artistic statement re: looking at my cats, aren't they great
-
@odilongreen Jan 2022
@vomvorton, My wife would 1000% endorse any album with this title and cover! (I like cats, but not like she does!)
-
@vomvorton Jan 2022
@odilongreen if the market's there, I already have a follow up planned.
-
@adforperu Jan 2022
I always pick a photo I've taken the year before for my covers, though I cheated last year and used an older photo.
Maybe this for 2022?
-
@joachipz Jan 2022
This will be my album cover this year:

@engebretsen Jan 2022
I always do an album working art cover. This is the one this year:

I've moved since last FAWM and my new place has a view of a park. Thought I'd try and let that inspire me.

These are amazing! Great thread...Inspiring :)

@mosley Jan 2022
Getting stoked for a far out FAWM, I'm gonna use this as my next album cover...
(my ongoing art/music project is called Electric Catnip)

@ductapeguy Thanks brother!

@unkept Jan 2022
I really love this idea. I'm not great at drawing, but like to tinker on Procreate with the iPad. I found a photo I liked, traced the face and then used brushes and colors, etc. I imagine this character is the voice in my head as I make music, and they saying "Tell Me", to share my thoughts and write my songs.
