Trip to The Herbert

The Herbert  is currently exhibiting 'Wonderful Watercolours: Views of Coventry and Warwickshire' until 22nd July, I really liked the composition of the pieces and the muted colours.

Whilst browsing HMV, this album cover caught my attention ...I like the cut out feature, and I'd like to do this sort of technique with an owl shape and my own countryside imagery and print this on to a t-shirt

Marla & The Fulcrums Vinyl Cover

Using Mark Hearld's illustrative methods and Andrew Tanner's composition of the English hedgerow plate, i have designed this vinyl cover.
