Graphic design is such an essential part of an artist’s brand and music career. From artwork for releases to promotional graphics, each piece of art should be created with intention. I’m so honored to bring you an inspiring and informative conversation about graphic design for artists with one of my graphic designers, Eddie Davis.
The quote for this episode is by Edward de Bono: “There is no doubt that creativity is the most important human resource of all. Without creativity, there would be no progress, and we would be forever repeating the same patterns.” I love my conversation with Eddie about graphic design. We talk about the importance of creativity, balancing personal preferences with what’s effective in the market, understanding the vision of the project, the purpose the artwork is meant to serve, the difference between a standalone piece of art and one that’s part of a greater project, setting expectations in writing, establishing a brand identity, the importance of paying attention to details, the process of creating artwork for a music release, creating promo graphics, finding a balance between the value of the music artist and graphic designer, and more. I enjoyed having Eddie on the show for such a fabulous conversation. I hope it gives you an informative overview of graphic design for artists.
