Little light shining...little light guide them to me...

This is one of my favourite pieces I've made in recent time! An illustration made as I listened to Kate Bush's The 9th wave; An absolutely beautiful experience of a concept album that inspired me so much. I really love a variety of storytelling mediums and music is absolutely no exception to this.

Some more notes about my process and feelings about this piece under the cut!:

I am working on a visual arts project inspired and heavily based on the structure of concept albums and so I was looking for more concept albums to listen to.

A wonderful friend of mine recommended that I listen to Kate Bush's The 9th wave because it's a concept album they personally love and I came to really love it myself!!

I was drawing this while listening to the album because it helps me to really sit with the music and feel it. I like to have something to keep my hands busy so that I don't wander off, but I wanted to make sure I was engaging very directly with the music so drawing what I was imagining and feeling was the best thing I could think of.

It was a very cathartic experience to start with a blank canvas and let the imagery that the lyrics and instrumentals evoked guide me. I really love the way that music stimulates these images and feelings, and that's precisely why I feel so inspired to try to echo that in my more visual projects.

This is most certainly fanart for the album, but it was very revitalizing to create something with direct inspiration like this. I really want to do more of this in the future!

Drawn on: Procreate

Inktober Day 4: Suspended in Gaffa; song by Kate Bush

[katebushfanart]

“It doesn’t hurt me. Do you want to feel how it feels? Do you want to know, know that it doesn’t hurt me?” Feeling lots of tragic, big emotions lately, so where better to turn than to Kate? A coupy-pencil experiment. Maybe starting to feel ever so slightly rejuvenated. Baby steps.
