Large-Scale Artwork: Giant 45s by Morgan Howell



Now you can share your love of music visually in the form of these supersized re-creations of vintage 45s. They are hand painted, hand wrinkled and ready to hang on your wall — once you import them from England. Created by British artist Morgan Howell, these records represent some her favorite vintage singles. She paints the album art then photographs it and prints it at a high resolution onto canvas. Then she constructs them into large scale record sleeves that are about 2' square. The fact that you can see the brush strokes makes them all the more charming. Inside the distressed sleeve is a large black disc with a printed label. They mount to the wall on a central chrome spindle.
