RONDA MATSON: The First Seven (2006) folk Matt's notes: Ronda's style of music was suited to a simple, elegant treatment of the cd art. The black and white photo she provided for the cover was very strong, but the toning work I did on it really made it pop. The subtle background texture is sand from an Oregon beach. (cover photo by Meg Heriot Photography) "Matt's approach to the artwork for 'The First Seven' came from a true artist's perspective. Though we worked across many miles, he was able to interpret my intentions for design and presentation, combine them with his own innovative ideas and splash them with insight. The final result brought forth so much more than anything typical. I look forward to the great fun of future collaborations!" - Ronda Matson
