Cerddwn Ymlaen

Inside the image.

The square cover combines a stylised landscape across its upper portion with a colour photograph below. A pale blue-grey sky sits behind a broad, gently uneven green hillside, which runs across the image and slopes slightly upward towards the right. Small, simply drawn trees dot the hill: dark brown trunks with rounded or angular green foliage. A narrow strip of brown ground marks the hill’s lower edge.

A large cream-coloured rectangular sign sits at an angle in the upper left, tilted so its top edge rises slightly towards the right. It carries a logo made from a dark footprint-like shape, pale pink curved lines and the words “cerddwn ymlaen”; smaller writing above reads “Walk On”. The sign is set against the illustrated landscape, overlapping the sky and hill.

The lower half is a studio photograph of three adults seated close together in front of a mixing desk. A blonde woman sits on the left, a brunette woman in the centre and a dark-haired man on the right. They face the camera, with relaxed expressions; the women wear light-coloured tops, while the man wears a dark jacket over a pale shirt. The wide mixing console fills much of the background behind them, with rows of controls and illuminated indicators. Dark equipment, including a speaker and rack units, is visible above and around it. The photograph is warmly lit, with amber highlights against the darker studio surroundings.

A dark, semi-transparent banner crosses the photograph near the bottom, angled slightly upwards from left to right. Large pale lettering on it reads “Rhys Meirion”; a smaller line beneath reads “Lucie Jones & Elin Fflur”. The lettering is clean and rounded, with the names arranged across the width of the banner. The boundary between the illustrated hillside and the photograph is irregular and layered, with the green slope extending over the studio image in places. The overall palette contrasts the fresh greens and pale sky of the illustration with the warm browns, blacks and skin tones of the photograph.
