Artist's Comments

This is a photo of George O'Brien from the silent film "Sunrise." I had previously used a picture from the actress who played the wife character from the same film in an album cover, and decided to do the same with the husband. I originally wanted his entire face in the shot, but I couldn't save the picture file since it was in the wrong format. So I took a screen cap of the picture which cut off the bottom of his face and I was going to take a screen cap of the bottom and piece the two shots together but when I saw how striking it looked with just the top of his head I decided to forget about the bottom part. The album it's a cover for is all very dark music with all kinds of Twilight Zone references, so to get a shot of somebody looking so terrified in such a dark setting (which I manipulated to make look even darker) was perfect.

I'm happy you think this does him justice. "Sunrise" is one of my favorite films.
