Blog 5. Some Top Graffiti Artists

    As we all know from my previous blogs, Bansky is a very popular graffiti artist, but there are tons of graffiti artists out there, Keith Haring, Inkie, and Dr. Revolt, just to name a few. These artists all have different techniques, making their artwork easy to tell apart.

    Keith Haring is an artist known for his outline forms of the human body, representing people. He is an artist I have known about for a while, but never knew he was labeled as a graffiti artist. Haring using his art to display message about peace and unity. He is a avid activist for things like aids and peoples rights. His cheery colors bring light to serious subjects and make them relatable.

    Inkie is a graffiti artist from London, his name making it obvious he dwells in the arts of messy things like ink. He using very thick and vibrant coloring to make his graffiti arts pop right off the wall as if three dimensional. He is now a well known teacher for young graphic design students, and is art is displayed with several different video games.

    Dr. Revolt is among the top famous graffiti artist but is more known for his tagging, so I would consider him a tagger. He often writes his name Dr. Revolt in different spots all over ton, but also does actual graffiti, its just not as well known.
