Good likenesses here and an ongoing good theme

‘Sgt Pepper’Lonely Hearts Club Band’ was the 8th album by the Beatles. It is regarded as an early concept album that advanced the roles of sound composition, extended form, psychedelic imagery, record sleeve design as well as fashion, drugs, mysticism and gave youth culture a sense of empowerment and optimism. The album is considered one of the first art rock LPs and the beginning of progressive rock music. It incorporates a range of stylistic influences including vaudeville, circus, Western and Indian Classical music. The original record sleeve design included many figures of historical and current history and was designed by pop artists Peter Blake and Jaan Haworth. My design links to the cartoon style caricatures that was created linking their music and psychedelic imagery of the time.

I only took up painting during the lockdown so a lot of my work is experimental trying to find out what techniques work well for me.
