Audio Drawings

A few weeks back, we were asked to pick a non-lyrical song and to make illustrations out of the song. The drawing should have had nothing to do with the title of the song or anything like - but kind of how the song sounds and makes you feel.

It seemed as in class people drew how they felt when they listened to the song, its kind of what i did and I kind of tried to respond/show each instrument in my illustration. I used mostly black ink and charcoal. They had to be only black and white materials. 


Here is my final drawing. I did 4 small ones before I finally worked on this one and became happy with it. I think it really portrays the song well.... It starts at the top left and goes to the bottom - like we read here in the USofA.
 *btw, I did NOT intentionally make those shapes in the top half of the illustration look like music notes. I was going with the song with my ink and brush*

The song I used was "Cascade Locks" - By TalkDemonic
You can listen to the song HERE.
