Over half of all the visual artists working today are women, but the paintings and sculptures shown in many galleries and museums tell a different story because they're usually the work of men.
In this book Kate Pankhurst, descendent of Emmeline Pankhurst, tells the fascinating stories of some of history's most talented female artists.
· Express your feelings and find your identity through art with Frida Kahlo
· Run away to the circus and paint with Laura Knight
