A large portion of my most recent work has been doing album covers, an area of design I am especially fond of.  When I listen to music, I often interpret sound with visual imagery in my mind, a phenomenon called color synesthesia.  Being in tune with this, and being such a lover of music, I find designing Album Covers is a great outlet for the ideas I get when I listen to an artist's music.

The ultimate goal of the album cover, in my opinion, is to act as a visual or aesthetic extension to the music of the release.  As a result, you'll see a lot of colors, styles and compositions, each created uniquely for each individual release.

I highly encourage you to check out these albums, listeners with eclectic tastes and open minds are sure to find something they like!
