Keith Haring

• May 4th 1958-February 16th 1990
• Artist and social activist whose work responded to the New York City street culture of the 80's.
• Inspired by graffiti art and studied at the school of visual arts.
• 1st public attention was with his chalk drawings in the NY subway.

Looking at Haring's artwork has given me ideas of my own to incorporate jelly babies in play situations. E.g. skipping, playing football. I could use them for postcards, posters and on sweet rappers to promote play. I could create animations of them for promotional adverts.
