Just over a year ago my band Avec Sans released our debut album independently. We did everything ourselves. Wrote, recorded, produced, mixed and mastered all of the tracks and even did the album artwork.
We knew the aesthetic we wanted to achieve but didn't know exactly how to execute it other than it required a stack of interesting photos of us. So we decided to do what we do best... dive in and figure it out long the way. I'm (Jack) pretty competent in Photoshop so I knew that we would be able to make something.
We can be PROFESSIONALS without the support of Major Labels. today. That's awesome. I'm glad I took Digital Media at Full Sail instead of Recording Arts. You need all the skills to pay the bills these days. You guys GET IT!

That's awesome. I'm planning to do this with my album. I've been designing the cover for a few months, and building up the songs, but I won't be producing it myself, I need to find a producer. And I have an idea of what could be done with my songs, on their own they are quite folky but I once put a hip hop beat behind 'Circles' and it fired my imagination..! I have the plain acoustic version on here, have a listen if you've got time, let me know what you think. You may have to skip through a minute of me talking shit though xD :https://steemit.com/openmic/@clintjunior/open-mic-week-38-circles-original-song-bathroom-sessions

Love this ❤️ - personally I'd say artwork has such a big part of the release, almost as much as the songs themselves.
A great release could be ruined with the wrong artwork yet the right artwork could absolutely send a release to another dimension!
Respect! 👊🏼

Nice design! I like it. Especially the back for some reason. You can only see half of the record label though. What's that look like?

Wow. You've inspired me by this piece! Congratulations on the new album cover, it looks beautiful! You can find art from this post included in my post here.
I write nothing about art, but have a major appreciation for artists and the fact that they don't make enough to live on usually or struggle. I hope my contribution can help you get more traffic!
Feel free to tag other artists in my post along with the hashtag #SteemianArtist and I will start including some more of your and their work :)

We tried a whole bunch of colours. This one just felt right for the album. Its dark lyrics with pop music
