Joan As Police Woman
Expression - she is looking up to the sky, which could suggest she is religious or spiritual, as well as free spirited. The movements she is making are reminiscent or pre Raphaelite paintings of bold expressions.
Colours - The colours red have a sexual reference, this is emphasised by the place the red is on, the lips and the chest. The green trees in the background, and the foggy smoke shows a mystical side of the artist. She is also wearing clothes to make her seem celtic, with the large necklace the beading cape on her shoulders an the crown she is wearing. The tattoo on her arm meaning 'infinity', suggests she is hippy-like and free spirited.
Styled - Her hair is not heavily styled; her face is hardly recognisable in the shot. This shows that the artist is more about the music rather then herself, making her more about the music rather then herself, making her more of an organic artist. However what you can see is the red lipstick, which does show sexuality.
Lighting - The lighting in this cover is natural, which shows the deep shadows under her cape, and the lightness around her head. This could be referred back to the relgious idea that she is free spirited.
Font - The font used is quite simple. The 'J' is elongated in comparison to the other letters. The shows that Joan is her name. The album cover name is also the same writting, and the same size as her name. This could suggest that her music is more important then the way she presents herself to her. The album is also in a red colour which emphasis this.
Ive never heard of this artist and looking at the album cover im lead to believe that she is a folk indie artist that is presented in an organic way, her music coming before herself.
