Lyrics and Art

Well something has been bothering me over the last few weeks and I didn't quite know how to deal with it, so rather than do nothing I made something that get it off my chest.

This piece is made using lyrics from one of my favourite bands ever, most people have never heard of them, and probably never will. They split up in 1999 and have vanished off the face of the earth ever since, that always makes me a little sad. But they recorded some amazing songs regardless. The band in question is Farside.

This was the original version, when I had finally got all the layers together I wasn't sure about the green background so...

I made it a little "greener", but still I wasn't sure if that was right...

Photobucket

Try again, this is good too.

But this is probably my favourite, maybe if I'd made the green more shocking from the start? Who knows?

The reason I do everything this way is so people can see my ideas and tell me what they prefer....

Love
Michael
