gcse art coursework - artists to study

I think Kandinsky was really inspired by music. Maybe you could adopt the same process and paint along to some songs you like and see how that influences your work. Do a painting for each song, changing genre and see what happens.

Music is too broad as a theme. That's why you may be having trouble finding artists and famous one at that because the job of an artist on making covers and flyers is to attract attention for the musicians.

You can get away with finding album cover designers, they can be portrayed as artists. Any paintings of anyone doing an orchestra would help if you want to look for those.

we're only just starting our coursework so it's better to start with a broader theme which you can develop and make more specific later - which will gain you more marks for development. i was planning to go into orchestral/classical vs rock later in the project.

i was looking at the artist of queen's 'news of the world' album but as it's quite old there's not a lot on it - same with smaller, more recent bands. i can't win hahah
