Behind The Artworks: TINE - A Winter Horrorscape (2025)

For the artwork of the album, I won’t go into too many details on the early stages of the art, but I did change artists at one point. That is all I can say on that, but I will say that the art of James Hutton truly speaks to me, and I was thrilled to have him do the final cover art for this album. As with all Tine artwork, the artwork was collaborative, with me sharing my vision with James and him bringing it to life and taking his own creative liberties of course. Elements such as the shrouded figure in red and the ghastly trees are very important to the cover art and the theme of the album as this album clearly conveys imagery of a cold, wintry, malevolent, forest seeking to assail, conquer, and consume any who would travel within. Both the front cover and the back cover are one singular piece of art, which was intended. I am extremely pleased with the final artwork and the look and feel it conveys for the theme and sound of this album.
