Another illustration for “SWITCH”, the music magazine in Mexico,
This work is about the guitar and legacy of Jimmy Page, the English guitarist and record producer.

James Patrick "Jimmy" Page, (born 1944) began his career as a studio session guitarist in London and was subsequently a member of The Yardbirds, from late 1966 to 1968, before founding the famous English rock band “Led Zeppelin”.

Jimmy is credited as a forefather of heavy metal by not only turning up the accepted volume of the electric guitar but also with his anthemic riffs and meticulous studio production. Page is widely considered to be the first producer to truly create the "heavy" sound of rock music with the combination of new drum recording methods and revolutionary room.

In 2003, “Rolling Stone magazine” ranked him #9 in their ranking of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. Page also has the distinction of having been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice as a member of both The Yardbirds and Led Zeppelin.

The Technique in the illustration is a mix-up: Pencil and photoshop effects.
