Jean-Michel Basquiat Drawings

[edit]

The art foundation created by the Estate of Jean-Michel Basquiat quotes Basquiat as saying, "Believe it or not, I can actually draw."[1]

Basquiat produced drawings from an early age, often using paper his father brought home from work to make drawings inspired by television cartoons. His mother had a strong interest in fashion design and sketching, and she frequently drew with Basquiat. As Basquiat gets older, at aged 8 or 9, he continues to make cartoonlike drawings inspired by Alfred Hitchcock films, cars and comic book characters.[2]
