Faith Ringgold (American) b. 1930, The Sunflower Quilting Bee at Arles, 1991
Acrylic on Canvas, tie-dyed, pieced fabric border, 74 x 80 inches, Private Collection

I know that the artist is a girl named Faith Ringgold who was born on 1930. She has written many books for kids and has made many works of art.
I know that Faith Ringgold made The Sunflower Quilting Bee at Arles in 1991. It is 74 by 80 inches big. The border is made of pieced fabric and the middle is made of Acrylic on Canvas
I know that Vincent Van Gogh uses water colors for his paintings and his paintings have lots of color. Faith Ringgold's art always has lots of color, but does not use water colors.
Faith Ringgold seems to incorporate her family in her artwork.
Faith Ringgold seems to make her paintings joyful.
