Happy Summer! I did this album cover in 2024 that I never got around to posting, so I'm doing it here! It was for a gospel singer doing Christmas hymns focusing on the incarnation. The final and some process images below.

Pencil Drawing

Watercolor Texture

I scanned the drawing and the texture and threw them in photoshop, then colored it from there. That has been the sweet spot for me in the last couple of years: a blend of traditional and digital work. That seems to yield the best results in the tighter deadlines. 

Deck the yuletide cheer ye merry red nosed reindeers!
