01. Cover Illustration for Willie Nelson LOST HIGHWAY by Wayne Brezinka.
02. Embroidered Willie Pillow* by Spruce.
03. Nashville Card Set by PhotoSho.
A whiplash of sorts from last week’s mid-century modern to now a contemporary country music icon in just one fell swoop. I really would hate for you to find this blog too predictable and therefore I must bring you Willie Nelson, a man who is certainly embedded in the American fabric. At the very top is a fantastic collage piece from Nashville based, nationally award-winning illustrator Wayne Brezinka who has quite a nice client roster. You’re looking at the final pick for a Best of album cover coming down the pike from Lost Highway Records. On his blog, Wayne elaborates that this album has some “power punch” guest artist’s like Lucinda Williams, Diana Krall and Elvis Costello. Mmm yeah. The album is coming out August 11th. More details can be found right here.
Next is a clever handcrafted pillow from the gals at Spruce in Austin who prove they know how to successfully mix their modern sensibilities with a Texas legend. And last but not least, is a great Nashville photography card set with Willie and more by Photo Sho.
