Jean Goode "Love Me More"

Back in 2020, I felt inspired to create some artwork, as I tend to do in my free time, and this concept began to take shape. At some point, I thought, “Wouldn’t this be cool as album cover art?” From there, I leaned into the idea, imagining the kind of songs that would exist on this fictional album and what it might be called. The phrase “Love Me More” came to mind instantly, and I followed that stream of thought.

The result is a conceptual album cover. No music release (yet), but a a fully realized concept.

The artwork is minimal and abstract. I’m drawn to creating visuals that feel like portals opening to another reality. Here, the colorful rectangle at the center represents the entrance to one’s inner emotional world, standing in stark contrast to the black, distorted background that reflects the noise of external reality. On the back cover and CD face, the title and track list float within that suspended, colorful space, fully immersed in the inner world.
