FAITH RINGGOLD
I love her combination of mediums, painting, quilt making and storytelling. I enjoy how she incorporates her life into her works and I also enjoyed the background behind her work. Not only a woman artist, but a woman of color. I can appreciate the amount of work she put into getting her pieces into galleries and fighting to be seen as an artist. I personally love mixed media pieces and I love how she paints on the fabric detailing before sewing the materials into a quilt.
Her pieces are very powerful, the Feminist Series, Slave Rape Aeries, American People Series... All incredibly vibrant and inspiring!
