Initially I was excited by this brief, as the prospect of being inspired by music to create a corresponding piece of artwork seemed exciting. But I quickly found out that it was a harder task than I anticipated. Especially if I had no connection to the song, which was usually the case. But I am glad that I decided to do all of the songs, because it meant I didn't just choose songs that I liked, pushing myself to try new things. It also meant that I had no choice to give up on it. I’m taking this as something to learn by, as it made me think outside of the box and encouraged me to be experimental. If I did find this easy then I wouldn’t have gained anything from the project, so I can only really be glad it challenged me. It also made me realise that I'm not as good as creating album covers as I maybe thought I was, but you'll never know what you're good at until you try!
