Simple & Pure - We don't need.



Yeah it's a silly one (we all need one of those from time to time).  I picked this record up for one euro at a weird little shop in Amsterdam - as a present for my brother.  It's just one of those finds that makes the rest of your life a challenge to top - their faces, the title, their pose, the sticker, the Dutch scrawling - everything is just...perfect.  I was lacking inspiration and feeling a little stylistically down-trodden tonight so I did a quick sketch of the record cover.  It was sitting right on my desk (I haven't seen my brother in a while, don't worry it'll get to him one day) and I always find it's best to grab some inspiration from around you when you're in a drawing rut. So there we go.

I've yet to listen to the record...I'll let you know if it's good.

  1. Had to laugh about the "weird little shop in Amsterdam", I guess they have quite a few of those here! Anyway, sounds like a good way of getting back on track (unintended LP reference here). Hope it helped! :)
