My parents are artists and I was exposed to a lot of #Basquiat & #Haring from a young age, but — despite the popularity of #KeithHaring's work these days — I haven't sat in contemplation of it in a _long_ time. In looking into the history of the #CrownGraffiti imagery, I was reminded how prevalent the crown imagery was in #Basqiat's work, the early #NYC #Tagging scene, and how that has continued to inspire to this day. 3/n
