A picture book biography of the remarkable folk artist Clementine Hunter.

Can you believe being an artist who is not allowed into your individual show? That is what happened to folk artist Clementine Hunter. Her paintings went from hanging on her clothesline to hanging in museums, yet as a result of the color of her skin, a friend needed to sneak her in when the gallery used to be closed.

With lyrical writing and striking illustrations, this picture book biography introduces kids to a self-taught artist whose paintings captured scenes of backbreaking work and joyous celebrations of southern farm life. They preserve part of American history we rarely see and turn out that art can lend a hand keep the spirit alive.
