Frida Kahlo
I cant remember if this had a title but it was a selfportrait of sorts. What I love about Kahlo is that she sees herself exactly the way other women see themselves most of the time ugly imperfect noticing every negative feature on your body and making it appear huge like there the lines in her neck the dark shadow across her lip and eyebrows. I thought she was hideous when I saw this picture but nothing could be further from the truth. Kahlo was a true beauty only she never saw it. I never read much into Kahlo simply because i prefer my own interpretation of her art...i let it be what it is. Art.






You're making excellent observations!

I have a book of her art. She is so emotionally expressive in her self-portraits, I can identify with some of them.
