Weekly Top Artist: Dego

This is the first piece in a series of portraits I plan to do, inspired by artists that reach the #1 spot in my weekly Last.FM charts. I’ve been keeping track for a few weeks. The first artist is Dego, one-half of the famous broken-beat duo 4Hero, part of Silhouette Brown, along with several other collaborations and aliases. This particular piece was inspired by his new album A Wha’ Him Deh Pon’? which I’ve really been enjoying for the past week or so. The pattern was inspired by the album cover designed by Nancy Jimenez. See sketches and a sample of Dego’s music below.
