Boy oh boy we're a hive of activity. With the mixing almost finished and the artwork for the pressing (along with the master) due shortly, it's time to work through the concepts for the artwork for the album.

We're still discussing the final name of the project, so if they change it on me, it'll be back to the drawing board.

As per usual, I am posting a few of the concepts for the artwork here. Any feedback appreciated!

The porch at Burgoon where we recorded the album, done in an HDR (oversaturated colour) style

 

Original concept from the photo we got during recording...the lettering is a Bit Cheesy



Burgoon in HDR style


Ok so I have a thing for the bright colours. So I thought hmm...lets try something simple



Ah, simple, clean...umm...oops...looks like I have accidentally ripped off the ideas in Neil Youngs Harvest album cover....



ARGH!!!

Ok, so I really like the shot with Carl sitting in his chair while the Kangaroo (Chloe) wanders through the recording session. Lets see...



Ok, simple, classy and.....CHEESY!! Oh crap.

Still, I like it. What else can we try with it...



Paul likes this idea



The sunbeam in the frame is terrific, esp considering the crappy (beloved) phone cam I am using.



I do love the oversaturated stuff at present. Hopefully that will change...



One of these images may be the cover, in the album artwork, or not used at all. Who can say? Add your comments to the comment bit and help us figure out whether its Gold!! or Fromage!! (Cheese!)
