Album Cover Challenge #117

June 29th, 2020
Thanks to everybody who voted for my image for the last round, let's wast no time kicking off the next round!

The task is to create an imaginary album cover based on randomly generated band/artist name and title.

Here is what you do:

1. Go to Wikipedia and choose the link for "Random Article" on the top left side of the page. The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your musician(s) or band.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
Band/Artist

2. Go to Quotations Page and choose "Random Quotes" from the left menus. Scroll down to the end of the page. The last 4 to 6 words of the very last quote on the page are the title of your album.

Album Title

3. Next, find or take a photo of yours (or photos) that fits the album name and artist(s). You can use one single shot or edit with layers, and so on. The processing options are limitless.

Don’t forget to crop your album cover in a square format. Whether CD or Vinyl, ablum covers are square!!

4. Use your favorite editing program to create your cover (or, if you don't have one, Ace members have free access to picmonkey.com -- and there are many other free programs out there). You can use any image of yours for the album, old or new, but you must use your own image (s) and do all processing for the cover during the time frame of the challenge.

5. You can enter multiple times but only one entry per photographer can be chosen as a finalist.

6. Tag your entries: albumcoverchallenge117

Rebecca Walton was my band/artist. She was born in 1958 and is the regional director of the British Council. She was admitted as a Companion of the Order of St. Michael and St. George for services to UK cultural relations in the 2019 Birthday Honours by Queen Elizabeth. I chose the English countryside for the cover. The songtitle was from a quote by Jeanette Winterson “What you risk reveals what you value.”
