Rings of Saturn - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Another response to an illustration 12" track. This is another attempt at not immediately reaching for the pencil. My last response also involved 3D elements, so I tried to continue doing something along those lines. I tried scanning a load of stuff I had at hand - wool, string, beads, just bits and pieces. 

Distorting the look of the scan makes it not look like it's original form, instead creating this interesting textural pattern. I think this cover is a mix of organic materials, and flat, digital shapes and colour. Nothing special, but it adds to my overall set of illustrated tracks.

And applying the design to the sleeve mock-up makes it look more put together, too.
