Album Cover Art
“Silas Durocher & Everybody Knows”; watercolor and colored pencil; 18in x 20in, (2008). Private Collection
A commissioned album cover artwork for Silas Durocher's quintet, featuring an imaginative stage scene where instruments appear to play themselves against a cosmic purple-blue backdrop. The theatrical presentation is framed by rich red curtains, with the background combining geometric patterns representing technical musicianship with organic starry effects symbolizing creative expression. The piece builds on Fall's earlier work for Stone Soup band, incorporating similar whimsical elements while creating a unique identity for this jazz ensemble through the interplay of instruments - clarinet, upright bass, drums, electric guitar, and cello - on a wooden stage.
