Similar Artists- Image

In this post I will be having a look at the messages given out by the artist Obadiah Parker and how they're created.


 The top image on the right is an album cover of Obadiah Parker. The message given out from this cover is that Parker is artistic and is interested in nature. This is significant for the fans of this genre because they like the idea of the artist as not trying to be mad and mainstrea, but to concentrate on their work and to be proud of their individuality. This is represented in this image because it shows that Obadiah Parker is keen to use art to show his product and he's not just saying 'look at me' like most pop artists do.

In the second image the overall message given out by Parker is that he's proud of how he looks. His ginger beard being the centre of attention is not something that mainstream artists do. This will give his fans pride in how he is unique and not giving into mainstream. Also, the colours and writing give it an authentic feel, this combined with his 'farmer' style look emmit his image of being unique.

In the third picture on the right we can see Obadiah relaxing with his friends. Here the audience get a glimpse into his social life and see that he hangs out with average looking people (no offence). This gives off the message that he is social and not too different to the average indie-acoustic fan. The background is a tree, yet again showing his country background, showing that he's not urban like most artists currently in the market.
