Elizabeth Catlett

Oh! but what of all the inspiring and beautiful work she has given us! Gracias Maestra!! Gracias!! Such a role model to this printmaker, my heritage as one of Mexican descent.

Ofrezco mis condolencias. Todos tenemos la esperanza de una resurrecion.

We will miss this beautiful sculptress , who shaped our lives through her hands. Peace & Blessings

I am sadden at the loss of such an honest Artist. Her work changed my view of the women she so beautifully represented. I am grateful God shared her brave spirit with us.

In God's own time and twenty-eight days after the fact another revelation has been revealed. I learned via the April 30th issue of Jet the transition of Dean Elizabeth Catlett; ten years to the day of my mother's transition and CWW's day of birth!

When I consider my space in time I'm grateful for the sensitive insights given me! As a fine arts guru, promoter & representative, dearly departed persons like: James Amos Porter, Charles White, Carl Owens, Selma Burke, Lois Mailou Jones, Edmonia Lewis, Elizabeth Catlett, Charles H. Wesley, Dorothy Porter Wesley, John Hope Franklin, Mahalia Jackson, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, etc. continues to charter, navigate, guide and fortify my passion to make a difference in music, history & the fine arts community.

Therefore, I pause to acknowledge another person I have learned to appreciate at a distance, wicking up whatever fortification whenever I could. I trust Dean Catlett is a soul at peace in life everlasting and that, all is well.

My genuine respect and love shall forever abide. May the spirit of my abiding esteem bring additional consolation to those who hold her near and dear to their heart; also.

What a good looking, talented and a great woman, she was indeed!

To the family and friends of Elizabeth Catlett,

I am so sorry for your loss. Those who die God keeps in his memory because they are precious in his eyes - Psalm 116:15.

Thank you Elizabeth Catlett for your politics and your art.

Lord Rest Her Soul.

I admire the work she did both with her hands and her heart. May her genius and compassion live on forever. - M. Batchelor (Los Angeles)

What a phenomenal and rare gem the world has lost, but the brilliance of your devoted work will always be with us. For that gift, you couldn't be thanked enough.
My sincere condolences to the Catlett-Mora family.
