The art of Jerry Pinkney
1 / 12
Illustrator and watercolorist Jerry Pinkney illustrated his first book in 1964, “The Adventures of Spider.” The commercial work kept rolling in, as did opportunities to illustrate album covers for recordings of Mahler and Beethoven, jazz albums for Coleman Hawkins and R&B groups such as “The Whispers.” -- Text by Rosalind Bentley, AJC
