For this project I wanted to illustrate Shawn Mendes. Based on the photograph I used as a reference, I thought it could make a great album cover. So after finishing the illustration, I mocked it up as a potential album cover with the title being, "XO, Shawn". 
Below are progress photos of the illustration so you can see how this came together, along with the photo I used as a reference. 
I also made an alternate version of the background and it's attached below.
XO, Shawn
