She was poetry, but he couldn’t read.”

Horrible job everyone
Another one. There’s an ongoing project I’ve got where I look at my most listened to songs last year and I draw a single cover for my favorites. I have some process videos for them on my TikTok:
[This links to my favorite one, the process video for Dancing Queen by ABBA]
But you don’t have to check it out if you don’t like, most of these hold up on their own, and some of those videos are kind of embarrassing lol. Anyways, here they are!
The songs shown, in order, are:
The Guide to Success, by Joe Iconis.
Dancing Queen, by ABBA.
Bro Duet, Sung by Drew Gasparini and Brandon Ellis, Written by Alexander Sage Oyen.
That Distant Shore, From Steven Universe.
I’d recommend listening to all of these songs, I love them a lot and maybe listening will give you some better context for the drawings. Who knows…
