It’s bout’ time I do a Lana Del Rey poster up in hurr. I have been obsessed with her over the last five years and have finally decided on a design that fit some of my favourite songs of hers. When I first heard her, she was the epitome of old hollywood glam. This last weekend I had the chance to go see downtown hollywood and the walk of fame. It was beyond ghetto in most areas but I saw the potential of its old glory in small things like the stars, architecture and some of the cool street art.

I wanted this poster to be in its glory days, when the city was built and thus I used every art deco font possible. The color palette was really fun too. Some of her songs are soft and melancholy and some are dark and moody so I had to do a few different palettes. Check out the rest of my poster designs HERE.

 SLEEPING AT LAST   |  KALEO

I was just talking to my mom about how lucky I am that I get to do what I love everyday (take care of my baby) and design cool things that express my creativity. This may sound weird but I have never felt like I was in my true element until now.The only other time was when I was a cheerleader in high school, I was so passionate about it and I loved being busy with something I loved. Since then I have been searching for that thing that truly fulfilled me. I thought it would be my husband, which did fulfill a different part of my life. Then my baby which has brought so much joy to our family but I think I have finally felt the creative happiness that I have been looking for for so long through design. In the past, I have loved designing but I think I felt empty without the other two things in my life and now I can say I truly have it all.

I chose to do this project because it wasn’t commissioned and I had 100% control over what I wanted to do. Music is my language and I am super passionate about it so choosing some of my favs to make fan art was so much fun. I also wanted to design some popular artists and some not so common, so those who followed my project would discover how great they are too. Well I hope you enjoy the completed Music Poster Project.

XOXOXXX

I have loved this band for a very long time. They aren’t widely known but I feel like they should be because of their cool sound that gets me so pumped when I design.

I pictured a clean font for this poster before I thought of anything else. Since they are very modern but also very smooth I felt like they needed a deep moody color palette to work with. I love green, (I painted my master bedroom accent wall this color green) so I looked for an image that I could spice up and do the kaleidoscope effect to. I love pairing really complex artwork with really simple type, I think it adds an awesome balance to everything for a final product. If you get some time and you like unique music, you should check out my recommended songs below.

Ciao,

Kirsten

If you know anything about me over the last few years, site you know Young Summer is one of my favs. I have probably posted a number of their songs on my blog and therefore decided they were a perfect band for me to do some fan art for. Their songs are so soft and seriously sound like summer at the beach. They have a good beat but not too much rowdiness and the lyrics are fantastic.

For the design I wanted something that showed what I saw in my head, viagra sale a sunset. I loved the pinks and purples that made this one more girly and soft. The typography needed to add some contrast so I did very modern almost barcode looking elements at the bottom. The YS was really fun too because I got to play around with a logo mark and I really love how it turned out.

Below are some of my favourite songs. You must check them out.

YOUNG SUMMER:
