Fake Album Cover Art
How I spend my time: Instead of making lists of favourite albums, I've created these fake ones instead. These are all original album and band names with visuals that are a mix of original photography, painting, doodles, digital flourishes and some original and/or modified typography. I'm not saying I would recommend any of these, musically-speaking. In most cases I've aimed for believability over creativity or cleverness, and that has been a challenge in its own right. But it's been a fun way to pass the time and use old art and photos.
I have also done a few REAL album covers, which are at the bottom of the list here, and would love to do more (wink wink!)
(These can also be available as 12x12 prints, available upon request.)
All names, design, artwork and photography by James Alfred Friesen. Click on an album for details.
