In the Corona lockdown I started designing record sleeves for friends as a way to lift their spirits. I take a record they like as basis, recreate it in Illustrator and then personalize them by altering the titles, the liner notes and photos. I like to make the designs as real as possible in Photoshop, by adding pricetags, user markings, ringwear et cetera.
I like doing this for two reasons: I learn a lot by making these designs and the response from friends (and their friends) is heartwarming. A win-win situation I'd say..

Recordsleeve for my friend Natad, based on his favourite album by Michael Palmer. Wilfred Limonious was the original artist behind this sleeve. It was a great pleasure - and a challenge - to recreate his style. I lieu of a penmouse, I drew everything with a regular mouse. Quite a pain..
