This painting shows Frida, the Mexican artist who achieved fame. A sad fate moved her to paint, and so she created numerous self-portraits.
As I am fascinated by Frida's work and her life, I wanted to honour her artistically by painting her, but using one of her paintings as a model.
I visited an exhibition where several of her original unique works were on display as well as a photo exhibition in Baden-Baden (Germany) showing old photographs of Frida and her life.
Even though it is a copy of the painting "Frida with Cat" I have worked my intention and artistry into it.
