Liam Back - Testing/Waters Artwork (Pattern Book)

A pattern a day keeps insanity away.
I challenged myself not to overthink too much on this project. It’s so easy to over-do the process in a post or pre-production phase. The music was different this time. It wasn’t supposed to be polished clean nor was it intended to be dirty. I wanted them tracks just to be pure ideas, rather than masterpieces. The hardest part is to know when to stop adding to a piece of art. I used to spend days/weeks on one art-cover just to get to that „🤙🏻“ or „yep, that’s it“ moment of satisfaction. When we are spoiled for choice and full of options, we like to experiment with „ALL“ of those options. If we are limited, we have to make do with what we have. So I gave myself limitations. I took it up on me to draw a pattern a day to express a certain feeling using two brushes, one color, within a timeframe, every morning in-between work. After a few weeks I accumulated enough textures and patterns to start creating digital art-work using the same limited guidelines in photoshop. Which I then used for my upcoming releases. This corresponded to the simple sounds and tracks I created.
