Aspera: Back When Love
Aspera brought in a great portrait artist to do the painting for this cover. I felt it only made sense to approach it like a classic 70's rock album. This album unfortunately remains unreleased.
Aspera: Sugar and Feathered
Aspera wanted an over-the-top, psychedelic, fantasy world created for their second full length album.
Denison Witmer: Of Joy and Sorrow
Denison Witmer is an introspective singer songwriter. Instead of pigeon-holing him with overly sentimental packaging, I used simple primary colors and projected text on the walls of his apartment to create an environment that was somber, but not sappy.
Denison Witme: The 80's e.p.
This E.P. preceded the above album. The two were collected in a set with a poster to commemorate the full length record release.
Ester Drang: Goldenwest
Ester Drang plays a somber form of neo-psychedelia with a sparkling clarity of production. I collaborated with their label head and shot the images at an airport. The images were then halftoned and splashed with primary color to create a woozy, sundrenched atmosphere.
Damien Jurado: This Fabulous Century
Damien Jurado is a singer songwriter whose work moves from introspective love songs to songs about serial killers. This being a retrospective, live, "bootleg" album, I assembled a rorschach test out of his press images and roughed it up using a photocopier to give it the necessary "unofficial" quality.
