Below is my final piece for the song " Count Bodies Like Sheep " This page is apart of a double page spread which consists of another set of song lyrics. In the Perfect Circle song previous planning allowed me to choose the best section of lyrics for this illustration. The idea I chose for this section of lyrics was a ram and a sheep standing outside a window whilst a young girl stands inside, I also gave it a poetic twist. Using a monochromatic colour scheme for all of my illustration apart form the 'blood' splatters, it gave a stylized look to my illustration.
The lyrics " Don't fret precious I'm here, step away from the window Go back to sleep " were taken and it was from this I chose the idea for my illustration. The idea was for there there to be a young girl standing in a window whilst these 'demons' told her to go back to sleep. It also played on the idea that you're safe at home but outside in the vase world there are many scary creatures, this lends itself to my brief. Finally this relation to the lyrics and their meaning, joint with the meaning behind the illustration idea, and gave the lyrics an interesting yet twisted meaning.
