"3"
Custom artwork designed for Sifar's new album entitled "3". Given that the music of the band is slightly noir and has melancholic overtones, I decided to keep the entire artwork in my trademark black and white style. Drawing inspiration from the yin-yang symbol, I represented a "face-off" between a person and his reflection. The idea was that the person sees a sense of anger and despair at his alter ego, which houses all the negative traits possessed by him. I sketched out a few compositions before going in for a diagonal one.
Amit (the bands vocalist) gave me some inputs as to what the entities could represent and also provided me with a preview of a song (Bhakt) from their album to help me out. The digital inks were done with the help of Kyle.T Websters brush pack.
Do check out a soundtrack from their album which I have embedded at the end of this page! :)
