artwork by The Pathological Puppy

When introducing a few of my own pieces some time ago, I mentioned The Pathological Puppy, also known as K-Mart, The Bug, or more officially Kevin Martin. If you don't know who this prolific, multi-talented artist is, look him up with any of his aliases at discogs.com and you should be impressed by the amount of musical productions he has been involved with since the late 1980's.
What follows is a selection of artwork he produced as The Pathological Puppy in the 1990's.

artwork by Chloe Evans

Two nice series of pieces by Chloe Evans, a young British artist.

The first two are 'paint and resin on aluminium' pieces, the next three are photographs. Visit her website for more information and to view other pieces and media used by Chloe Evans.

A couple more examples of my personal output that owe a great deal to the Pathological Puppy's post-modern digital tapestry.

untitled series 2

Under the influence of the Pathological Puppy? Well, this looks more than likely to me now, over 10 years after making these pieces at a time when almost every other record I got my hands on featured artwork designed by this very Pathological Puppy a.k.a. Kevin Martin a.k.a. The Bug. Think the 'Routes from the Jungle', 'Macro Dub Infection' and 'Ambient 4 - Isolationism' compilations, think most releases by God and Techno Animal from the mid-90's, and so many others, all of them worth checking out for both the visual and sonic contents.

Hypocracy series

These photographs are part of the 'hypocracy' series of Liquid Sphere releases.

It all started with a photograph I took in New Orleans in December 2001. I noticed a graffiti scribbled on a wall and decided it would be appropriate for the artwork of the upcoming Liquid Sphere 3" CDR 'hypocracy' put out by Taalem in 2002. Some variations were found on the 'hypocracy 2 & 3' CDR. More may one day be included in the artwork for the unreleased 'hypocracy 4' EP.

artwork by Shirin Neshat

Shirin Neshat (شیرین نشاط) is a renowned US-based Iranian artist whose multimedia works often comment on the relationship between women and Islam. Some of her photographs have graced the covers of albums by British artist Muslimgauze (a one-man band led by the late Bryn Jones). 
Shirin Neshat has also produced a handful of films, among which the breathtaking short 'Turbulent' which can be seen here.
You can also view more pictures by Shirin Neshat on this page or on that one.

artwork by Cordell Klier

I already mentioned Cordell's work (both musical and visual) in a previous post regarding the liquid sphere's 'Blissful World' album.
What follows are some examples of how you turn some amazing artwork into great-looking covers.
Once again, I advise you to visit Cordell's website to view more of his artwork and download (for free) many of his releases. Those featured below are among those I would highly recommend you get. They are 'The Knoll (for Lisa Anne Schmidt)' (2003), 'New' (2004) and 'Rebirth (The Physics of Light)' (2005).
