We commissioned Miami-based visual artist Javaroa for the album artwork of our EPs. His pop sensibility and strong painterly streak seemed ideal for capturing love in different languages. The results couldn't be better. Each cover was created on a large canvass with a "mixed technique." Combining collage and pigments ranging from oil to tar, each work conveys a unique sense of the culture. The beauty of a real physical painting supporting an entirely digital EP has made us very happy. Check him out at www.javaroa.com.
