Glad that Cruel Summer is over or is it starting?

So I just picked up my copy of Cruel Summer and quite satisfy with my purchase I have played it non-stop. (If you don't know Cruel Summer is the new album by Kanye West and group of other rappers like Common, Kid Cudi, John Legend, Pusha T, Q Tip, Big Sean and others under the name of G.O.O.D Music). I bring this up in this art blog as because I have notice how much music is such influence on me in general but more specifically in my artwork. As two properties that are do influenced by the creativeness of the artist you could see why one another would inspire... well one another.

I always look into music and even listen to some all the time when I work on my art as I get a sense of inspiration every time I listen to a couple of my favorite tracks. I don't mainly listen to hip-hop as I delve into other genres like rock, electronic, country and anything that is appealing to my ear I really try to take no sway to a specific genre so I get a broad listen to music.

You would be surprised how well listening to music gives so much insight on your art or maybe you do and understand where I am coming from. It's always nice the letting your mind drift away to the beat and the lyrics of the music and drawing does the same letting you get caught in the world of your own art.
