These two CD packaging designs were created eight years apart, and I appreciate them equally for different reasons. The Arena of the Unwell is my hand-rendered original illustration, Rapidograph pens and all. The Sound of Leaving involved a bit less elbow grease yet the more sparse/more striking design suited the general direction of the band’s music. Letterpress printing by the gods at Aardvark Letterpress. The Arena of the Unwell was published in Graphic Design USA’s 2006 annual.
