Mr Big Record Sleeve Artwork Design

Illustrated record sleeve cover artwork design to accompany a music track entitled 'Through to Mr Big'. The title of this track alone, conjures up images of 1930's American crime bosses. The commanding powerful types, who never answer their own phones. Charismatic men that people feared but also admired. I pictured their garish take on classic Italian tailoring. Their fat bloated status flashing cigars, that bellowed smoke in everyone's eyes. The designs clashing green and orange colour palette is meant to immediately catch the eye, just like the presence of such a character. I used the image of a vintage cigar clipper and art deco font on the back of the sleeve to further accentuate the style and panache of someone with such a reputation.
