There's something about seeing a vinyl in your hands that brings back specific memories, emotions, and lyrics. Music is personal to everyone. Stephen Wilson took this category even more personal by reminiscing where his career started, in a rock band based out of NJ in the 80s. Who knew that many years later, he would be embracing the subject of music within his new artwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis collection took the longest to even start! There was so much to consider. Every album has its own design.

Goat’s Head Soup was a challenging project. The album cover features a photograph of Mick Jagger with organza draped over his face. Because of this his image is out of focus and obscured by the fabric. I wanted to represent the album as closely as possible so I started by stitching the details of his face and eyes in loose wool thread. I also embroidered part of the colors of the fabric and shadows that the fabric would create over his face. Then as the final touch I used actual folded organza over the album and tacked it in place. This is the only album in the series that is draped in fabric.
