Jay-Z: Decoded






This past summer I received my first freelance book illustration job, and it was quite a doozy. I was hired by Rodrigo Corral Design to illustrate Jay-Z's memoir Decoded which just hit bookshelves on 11/16/10.  All in all I did 23 illustrations, 14 of which made it to print.  Here are some of the originals next to their respective pages in the book. All of these were done in graphite.
