Faith Ringgold


We've spent the last two weeks learning about the American artist Faith Ringgold. 

Faith is a great inspiration because not only is she a wonderful artist but she also worked hard through her life to bring about equality for African Americans and women.
She's a real life human rights defender! 

She is very famous for her story quilts (like Tar Beach).



We used these quilts as inspiration for our own art. 

We chose our favourite memory and surrounded it by the nicest pattern we could think of. 

Our story quilts came out great! Check them out here!
