This piece based on Seargant Peppers Hearts Club album. I used a compass to draw out 11 rings and within each ring would be a abstracted representation of each song. I tried to use a different quality of line to describe each track.
As I got into the centre the circle got smaller and smaller and there was less room to work with. Overall I prefer the free hand drawings better because it doesn't feel like it flows as well. It was a good experiment but not the way forward as I feel it lacks energy.
11 Track or 5 ?
Up until now I've just been making EP's based on a selection of 4-5 songs that I felt well particularly strong visually. On the other hand, when I did 11 tracks, some of the lines looked weaker and didn;t have as much variation or contrast. .I think I am going to stick with what I was doing before because 4-5 good lines are better than doing 11 with over half of them looking weaker than the latter.
