Orion Suite: James Zimmerman

This album was inspired by a song we sang in elementary school music concerts (circa 1980) called "Orion".  Even though the song has been around since 1974, many people in my generation remember and still love the song. To my knowledge, the only place this song exists is in music textbooks from the era. I've recorded a former music teacher singing and playing guitar to the song. The link is below. (It is unlisted.)

The image depicts Orion's belt with its three stars, plus three of the stars in Orion's sword. My layers didn't line up 100% accurately but I was able to clean the layers up a bit, and also to blend the marker lines on the original artwork. 

My original album cover did not show Orion's tunic, but I liked the way the separation looked and I kept it and added two shoulder stars.

 If you'd like to see the other version I would love your feedback as to which one is the better version.

 

Best, Jen
