American Classic / cover, originally uploaded by valp.now.

My recent cd cover (wallet) for American Classic, band playing alternative rock which you absolutely have to check out at their myspace pages: www.myspace.com/weareamericanclassic.

The idea was to catch boy growing into a man, with all issues beyond that. Guys came up with it and I was happy to deliver graphic for their first album.

AmetriA is a Polish band playing rock/metal since 1993. They have just released third album called New Day and I had a chance to work on cover (above) and all other designs (some previews via flickr, more online soon).

Find out more about band at their myspace profile.

It’s time to share some of my past projects. If you simply want to turn clock backward for a while - do it now (slideshow)! Cd covers set is updated all the time.

I really like this cover because of several reasons but the main thing is that I had that idea long time ago and was waiting to use it somewhere. I took trunk photos more than year ago and just know they will be perfect one day. And that time came up few weeks ago, cover looks pretty good and that’s it!

When band came up with proposal of work they were excited about Beltaine’s album (Koncentrad). It was a challenge because I didn’t want to make the same thing for band who knows each other and, what’s more, I prefer to include part of my soul into graphics - just like they are doing the same with their music. I got  absolutely 100% creative freedom while working on this album which is much much appreciated, especial because shanties albums are… crappy, if you take a look at graphic design (at least in Poland :). So, I hope you like it as much as I do!

More photos of Broceliande cover (as well as other cd covers from my portfolio)

A brand new album by “Neighbours” has been released. Real photos comming soon since I’m still waiting to see it printed! However it was a big pleasure to work on that graphics: digipack and booklet are all in this pretty folk mood, all done in too big rush ;-).
