Female Artists Quotes

Female artists are the perfect example of a creator: They know how to make life and art with their bodies. Life comes from their bodies, so on a very basic level, they have more to write about. Brandon Boyd
There are a lot of female artists my age around at the moment, but they're all American and blonde and blue-eyed and smiley. I'm totally the opposite of that. I want to show a bit more attitude and I have an opinion. Samantha Mumba
Sarah McLachlan quote: "We showed the industry that female artists could attract the..."
We showed the industry that female artists could attract the same audiences as the big male stars. Sarah McLachlan

Small male frogs—it's been documented—discover if they position themselves in empty drainpipes, the pipe acts as a voice amplifier and the small frog appears much larger than it really is." So?" So that's what art is for the artist, an empty drainpipe. An amplifier. A stab at... Margaret Atwood
Patti Smith quote: "I never felt oppressed because of my gender. When I'm writing..."
