These drawings were used for a friend's album cover.  I was given very loose parameters, and allowed to take inspiration from the music without anything holding me back creatively.  I decided to collage together a group of improvised/abstract drawings to play on the loose nature of the music.  I ended up producing a number of variations for the client to choose from.  Check out the previous post to see my personal favorite version.
