Babies

The "radiant baby" and "family dog" were recurring themes for Keith Haring. He drew both motifs in many incarnations: babies radiant with halo and wings, babies dandled on daddy's shoulder, or cradled in mommy' arms. Throughout his too-short life Keith Haring had a special affinity for children. He had many loving relationships with the children of friends and found great rewards in the art projects he frequently did with schoolchildren. Matched with insightful entries from his writings, which reveal his thoughts on life, children, friendship, and art, these joyful drawings continue to entertain and provoke.
