An album cover for Fleetwood Mac's Rumors. The illustration expresses the mood of the music for example the subject of an elk vomiting a squid reflects the turmoil of Fleetwood Mac's personal lives during the recording of the album. The elk is a symbol of their 'folk' feel and the squid refers to their smooth tones yet verbally powerful lyrics. The type and color is inspired by Alvin Lustig, a great designer who believed the design should reflect the content. Created for Nic Taylor's typography course.
