art - me !! + rebecca green for og album cover art music - strangler fig (first song) + shallow river (second song) by the crane wives ok so just for some context the crane wives is one of my favorite artists ever. i could talk about them for hours on end their music is fantastic. anyways recently I decided to re listen to the fool in her wedding gown, an album of theirs that I had heard before but I was pretty ambivalent on the album, even though it had always intrigued me. when i re listened to it I loved it and so I decided to redraw the cover art for the album. i included both strangler fig and shining river as the bg music because 1. strangler fig is SUCH an underrated banger and 2. shining river has the title of the album in the lyrics : “may the whole sky fall / may it all come down / wasted all for the truth (oh!) / for the fool in her wedding gown (oh, oh!)” as a side note I absolutely adore the implications in the title : “ the fool in her wedding gown ” like wth that’s such a cool album name. onto the art! 1. I am beyond pleased with how this turned out. I love the rendering and I managed to draw a background (albeit rather simple). the one thing I do regret though is I think when colorpicking from the og cover art I made her skin look too yellow 2. w/out filter 3. w/out filter + words 4. og cover art 5. tfihwg has 12 songs in total, and all of them are awesome. the starred songs are underrated bangers that need more attention. the most well known song from tfihwg is tongues & teeth with canary in a coal mine as second, both of which are definitely good and are popular for a reason but I feel like the rest of tfihwg isn’t often ignored, which is quite sad since this is such a great album.
