Deep Space Records

July 22nd, 2009

Several months ago, I drew a cute little picture for the owner of Deep Space Records. He contacted me recently to ask if he could use it on his new album-cover.

Then, he sent me his first idea - might come out this way, might be changed. And he even asked me my opinion of the album title:

I thought it looked adorable. And the title (from one of the songs on the album) seemed all-inclusive. But if it’s called, “Out of My Mind”, perhaps, ummmm,
I sent him the following two suggestions:

Late at night. Just glued to my seat in front of the computer - I was inspired to draw something else from the photos that were also on his mock-up. Unsolicited, but it turned out that Keni wanted this picture too. A pleasant surprise for me!

And then
this came out!

It’s just all so fun - getting involved other people’s projects. BTW, when the album comes out, you can probably get it at dspacer.com

Convey My Love

June 30th, 2009

Ok - not too much is asked of an Artist.
Well, it’s fun, anyway.

This picture was commissioned by a real Romantic man
who asked me to make a Masterpiece to convey his feelings
to his Girlfriend for her 30th Birthday.
Not quite a simple task.

quote: Hello Alison:
I am counting on you, please!
30 years old, how important for one woman, I can not celebrate her birthday with her this year, so, please help me as “Joe Fox” to surprise “Kathrien Kelly” in the movie “you’ve got mail”, your masterpiece will represent my cake and flower, I can imagine that she will cry when see my sincere gift, thank you again, thank you! /endquote

Here’s what I came up with. Not too shabby, eh?
(I wish you could see the original - The colors are more subtle.
Magnificent. But they didn’t scan right.)
