FRIDA KAHLO and Doll Self Portrait Folk Art Painting


This is the first in a new body or group of paintings that I've started. Frida as a palm or coconut tree titled STANDING TALL. She has her own Frida Tree Doll with her. It's meant to kind of blend a bit so that you have to look twice to see what it is.

I am not a big fancier of using chemical aging or antiquing dyes and such. I feel just mix the colors you want and get it the very first brushstroke. It helps you learn alot about color and their hues.

Check back again for the next Frida Kahlo Portrait tree. This one is up for sale now on ebay.
