About the Project
Madonna’s True Blue, released in 1986, is a pop masterpiece that marked a significant evolution in her musical career. Featuring a mix of upbeat dance tracks and emotional ballads, the album showcases her versatility as an artist. The album is known for its polished production and mature themes, making it one of her most successful and critically acclaimed works, and is also one of my personal favourite albums.
I hand-drew a blue rose on my iPad using Procreate, capturing the essence of the album’s mature, romantic, and emotional themes. It perfectly embodies the album’s complex blend of emotions. The soft blue tones create a cohesive and serene visual that complements the title, while the minimalist approach allows the rose to take center stage, emphasizing its significance. The cursive typeface for the album and song names pays homage to the original album cover, to give a more feminine, innocent, and sexy tone to the cover.
