I was thrilled to lead a”Flag Bookmaking” workshop at the Northridge Branch Library in honor of Women’s History Month, International Women’s Day, and Women Artists everywhere!
Participants learned how to create the fun and fantastic FLAG BOOK structure, and about ground breaking women artists Faith Ringgold, Frida Kahlo, Yayoi Kusama and Georgia O’Keeffe.
SO Much Fun and Learning, and Engagment was had by all.
Leon, age 6, worked his idea through from conception, to color, to pattern to layering! Note that his shirt features a book, and is the samecolor primary color scheme of red, yellow and blue as his flag book, or, vica versa!
Amazing works created by participant Cathy, who began these books at a previous “WE WRITE The BOOK” workshop, and completed them at home! (Folded Fan Book Structure)
