Totally Plucked
It was a great honour, great fun to do the illustrations for an album or should I say a CD.. Totally Plucked. My life dream was always to be an illustrator for LP covers. I absolutely loved LP covers growing up.
The designer of the record was Roz Hermant, who’s also an amazing photographer and mix media artist. http://rozhermant.com Jan- Paul Campeau producer is a amazing musician and Andrew Hermant who is just simply brilliant.
The Process
I finally finish my piece that I will be submitting into the Art School of Peterborough Auction happening on April 14 2018 . http://artschoolptbo.org/art-auction-2018/
It’s A bigger piece 16”x16”. This piece is an example of mix media ..I combined Scratchboard with acrylic media… I though it would be interesting to see the process. The piece took me about 2 weeks to complete…. Not sure what to name it yet.
