Above: Rowan Smith’s ‘Your Gift’ single cover design by Rowan Smith (Rowan says: “The bicycle itself – just like in the song – I purchased from a street artist in Sydney in 1990. A stranger in Chinatown was making miniature bicycles in ten minutes out of a length of wire using a spray-can lid and a pair of pliers. I watched it made, and it cost me ten bucks all those years ago. The pedals spin and everything. Still one of the most precious things I own.”)
