Brave Arrows is the solo project of Michael Socrates, the guitarist of If Trees Could Talk, Artificial Astronauts, and many other bands. His latest work, The Plagues EP, is a collection of predominantly late-night basement jams. Charles Scott Creative designed the original cover for this project.
This cover design merges three visual devices to form incredible artwork, with three women in antique garments with their hands pointing up. The monochrome negative design places a thin black circle around their joint hands, indicating a dark ritualistic maneuver.
The entire right side of the panel is covered with a pattern of black dots that also reappears on the left woman's dress. These dots are accompanied by dot-and-dash glyphs above the left and right women's heads. The glyphs are frequently associated with the Morse code, so it appears that the women are trying to communicate with someone or something (find out how you can leverage bold-lettered logos to communicate with your audience).
