Faith Ringgold American Artist Quotations

I'm not so presumptuous to feel that they're gonna get it right away, get exactly what I have in mind. I hope that they'll enjoy looking at it at any rate, whatever it is. And that's why I started writing stories on my work.

I think that has been a benefit to me because I think most people understand quilts and not a lot of people understand paintings. But yet they're looking at one.

I was pleased with the results but every time I look at both of those pictures, I feel a little bit of the pain I felt in trying to put it together.

I think actually it's been a benefit to me that my work has been in quilt form, that I decided to quilt my paintings, which is what I do.

I think about what I'm trying to say and recognize the fact that people may see what I see or may hear what I'm saying or may not.
