Artists have
different ways of
letting others know a painting is theirs. They might sign it with their name or
put a special symbol on it. Keith often drew a "Radiant Baby" as his
signature on an artwork. The rays around the baby are not radioactive, they symbolize
energy. Because Keith felt that art should be everywhere, he put drawings like
the "Radiant Baby" on everyday items such as posters, buttons and T-shirts.
But there are other images besides the "Radiant Baby" that Keith used
again and again that are now recognized around the world. He also drew the "Barking
Dog" and dancing people in different colors. By rearranging the same pictures
in different ways, Keith was able to change the meaning and feeling of every picture.
