If Jody Barton transformed his design credentials and awards into military rankings, he'd be an extremely decorated officer. It's no wonder, then, that he was commissioned to do the latest album cover for Phoenix's last release, Wolfgan Amadeus. However, his other work is extremely notable and thought-provoking at the same time. This London-based artist is not stuck on one design style either, as you can tell by his beautiful watercolor works. Check out his blog and website too, it's pretty fun to click around.
