Front Cover4 viewsSince the CD was instructional in nature, I decided to use a "learning to dance" motif in the cover art, hence the title. The dance diagram on the cover is actually a work by Andy Warhol, entitled "Dance Diagram," which I shamelessly grabbed off the Web. I wanted to include some people, so I put in the little folks you see down in the corner. This element also helped balance the composition of the cover.

Back Cover3 viewsFor the back cover I grafted the heads of the various Rusties, taken from gig and rehearsal photos, onto the bodies of various dancing figures I found online. The text line about being "a little bit Rusty" refers to the lyrics of the one song on the CD that was written by me!

CD Label4 viewsMore Web dancers for the label, along with some stylized text. I thought it was nice the way the "step" words appeared over the dancers' legs!
