Challenge 24: Dinner Guests— Keith Haring
In college, I wrote a paper on Keith Haring’s spiritual, yet non-religious, work, and really felt, for the first time, that I found a person who had the same beliefs and viewpoint towards life. Haring was a lovely, giving person who loved children and felt they, and their love, represented the purest thing on earth.  After he lost his battle with AIDS, this quote was found in his journal:
“Touching people’s lives in a positive way is as close as I can get to an idea of religion.”
I would definitely have Keith Haring at my dinner party, to discuss all sorts of wonderful philosophical and spiritual things.  And to thank him for being such an inspiration!

The Square Carousel Collective was founded in 2011 by 10 talented, up and coming illustrators. After meeting at school, the group was initially formed around shared aesthetics, and now encompasses a eclectic range of styles. Although we all work in different mediums and styles, we share a common drive for professionalism and dedication to the field of illustration. We post tri-weekly challenges, with each artist taking a turn selecting a theme. We also discuss our illustrator lives of traveling to various conventions, shows, and living off ramen.
