Redesigning the iconic Sour album as vinyls! I have been a big fan of the talented Olivia Rodrigo and wanted to create vinyl variations of her amazing Sour album. The original cover is very authentic and captured the dynamic range of emotions that is heard throughout this album with the moody feelings and raw heartbreakso I wanted to create one similar to it. I love the aesthetic and brand identity of Olivia as it has a unique charm and is easily identitifiable as her so I used strong purples and butterflies to reference this. I hoped to create a wistful, dreamlike cover that conveys the feelings of yearning, the deja vu 'dreamlike' and timelessness state conveyed in deja vu was a big catalyst of inspiration for me.

Hey Patricia, this is great work, I really enjoy this take on her album cover for a vinyl record. I like that you did the cover the vinyl goes in and added an extra touch on the record itself. I think the color choices, butterflies, bubbles, and clouds definitely lend well to her music on this album.
In terms of improvement, the edges of Olivia including her hair and arms look a bit blurry or rough. Depending on what tool you used, spend some more time researching how you can better mask out a background but still keep the fine details like individual pieces of hair and edges of a person. There's some good video tutorials for Photoshop out there, or whatever tool you use.
Aside from my minor feedback, really great effort.
