Release artwork and identity

SV Music

My own music, under my own name: six years of release artwork, and the identity that now holds it together.

I make my own music and design everything around it. Six years of release artwork sit under one identity I built in 2026.

01. The brief.

Every release needs artwork that reads as the same artist without repeating the last one, and an identity that can sit on a profile, a banner and a sleeve.

02. What I built.

Sight Is Blind (2022): an EP cover worked through eight halftone iterations, a crucifix on a rosary and a Sacred Heart in three colourways, until the red cross on cream won. Decade Anthology (2020): a campaign of duotone portraits, one colour per mood, and a collage. For Peter (2025): an embossed rose in blue. And in 2026, the identity: a rose in a cracked vase, a logo family in four colourways, Greycliff and Lora, and a three-page guideline with a mood board.

03. What it does.

The identity now sits on every profile and release; the artwork series shows the range underneath it.
