Painting II Album Covers

Students in Painting II recently completed a creative and personal project in which they designed and painted original album covers inspired by a song of their choice. The assignment challenged them to visually reimagine their selected song, incorporating painted imagery and handwritten or stylized lyrics into the final composition. In addition to exploring connections between music and visual art, students also integrated a Spotify song code below their artwork. This unique feature allows viewers to scan the code using the Spotify app and listen to the song that inspired the design, creating an interactive experience. The project encouraged students to think deeply about mood, symbolism, and visual storytelling while experimenting with painting techniques and composition.
