It was my great pleasure to create the cover artwork for Felix Olschewski’s brandnew album Love&Passion. Although Felix’ vision for the cover was very specific he gave me a lot of freedom in terms of style and composition of the artwork. Being one of the first people to hear the full album I let the songs affect me and this is the outcome when the music shows through in my artwork.
The final artwork:
The first scribbles for Felix’ consideration:
Studying the movement and the anatomy of wolfes with drawings was necessary to get the right feeling for the pose of the wolf
The final pose for the wolf from my sketchbook. From there I continued with digital painting and did a collage of traditional watercolor effects that I’ve scanned combined with digital painting.
