Yes! I turned it in yesterday. Felt so good.
"Beyond Frida Kahlo and Georgia O'Keefe"
What's that, you say? Beyond Frida & Georgia? But they are great artists.
Yes, they are, but there are so many other great women artists that I bet you have never even heard of, let alone seen a book or two about. Especially books for kids.
I took a class a while back called Women in Art.
I was surprised to learn about many women artists I'd never heard of before. I got excited, asked too many questions in class, til the professor told me to stop (she did, really).
Oh, I guess I can find out on my own. So I did.
And I wrote five picture books, each about a different woman artist.
Rosa Bonheur, Maria Martinez, Sonia Delaunay, Elizabeth Catlett, Ruth Asawa
Look for them in print some day.
Who would you like to see a book about?

How very, very exciting. What an accomplishment! Congratulations.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kristin!
ReplyDeleteWell done! A thesis is a big deal. I know only two of your five artists.
ReplyDeleteLet's see, I would like to see a book about Margaret Preston... you would like her work I am sure.
Thank you Gay. Margaret Preston? I'll look her up.
