Thiis "Frida: Letters to Diego" is a limited edition, signed giclee print with a beveled white mat. It is 8" x 10" and is ready to be popped into your favorite frame. This print was made from a unique mixed media piece of art with historical signigicance. It includes Frida's letters and works taken from the book, The Diary of Frida Kahlo: An Intimate Self-Portrait by Alas Rojas. The portrait of Frida was painted over these interesting layers of letters and art by Frida.
Careful attention was made so this painting represents Frida's Oaxacan (Mexican) culture, which was inherited from her mother, rather than painted like so many which have been altered making Frida look too European. The colors I selected for her clothes, flowres and jewelry also represent her proud heritage. Frida is celebrated in Mexico for her attention to the Mexican indigenous cluture, as well as her unique style, Mexican folk art, surrealism and realism and her depiction women, feminism and their experiences.
I was honored to live in Mexico for 8 years and loved touring Frida's Casa Azul in beautiful Coyocan; the Diego murals at the Palicio National; Diego's studio home where Frida lived for some time; visiting Xochimolco in a colorful boat where Frida and Diego celebrated their second time married, to name a few.
