-The title of the album is again been used on the CD artwork. The lettering of ‘Lungs’ has been made much clearer for the audience to read.-The font used blends in with the theme of the album, in a vintage style. Whit e font is used throughout the presentation of the CD.

-Within this CD artwork, we see the singers hands being used to take hold of something. The colours again are similar to the front cover, making her skin very pure and porcelain.

-In this image, we see the singer again but while performing in front of fans. Her body language is bent over slightly while holding onto fans hands which connotes that she has a strong connection with her fans and that she appreciates them. This again is positive representation of her. -She is presented in again a vintage style outfit which continually attracts a younger audience which have a love for fashion.

-The artwork on the back of the album is a drawn diagram of lungs. This continually carries the theme of Lungs and the vintage style. Parts of the diagram have numbers attached to them which may link to the specific song number of the album.
