Description
This is a piece of art I created for my boyfriends E.P cover art. The E.P is called 'Ashes, Ashes' and he asked for an 'ashy, decayed looking city', and this is what I came up with

I've used old book pages, which I coffee stained, for the background and then charcoal to draw the city and acrylic white to highlight areas.
(Fun fact: the E.P was originally supposed to be called 'Ashes to Ashes', but I messed up while adding the title in Photoshop and it is now called 'Ashes, Ashes'.)
The full cover art version is up here on Facebook page:[link]
