This post refers to you.

Here's the cover I did for Miss Maya's new EP, which you can pick up tonight at the Beaches Jazz festival! It was fun to try and extend the photo outwards into something that that is more of a stylized design element, but still make the transition look convincing. Maya will be playing with MINT and a slew of guest artists at 1910 Queen Street East, from 7-11 tonight. Plenty of other funky and amazing bands will be performing there as well, so don't miss it!
