I've been very fortunate to be able to work with musician DEON on his past two albums. Both projects were helpful in forcing me to learn new techniques and make completed works, which, I can often try and avoid. I think my personal work has benefited immensely from this.

His most recent album, Oceans, was designed as a very short story book telling the story of a travelling, winged lion. I really enjoyed piecing all the images together and fitting everything with the tone of his music as well as lyrics.

Below are images of the cover illustration and some snippets of the album pages. Lyrics are by DEON.
