Life Told Through Artist Expression




The has to be the saddest story I've ever heard, Frida's paintings were a reflection of her at different stages often a life in which she spent in extreme pain. Pain I can't imagine starting from the age of 18 when suffered multiple injuries do to an accident she had on a trolley that collided with a buss. This was the inspiration for her paintings because she was bed ridden in a body cast for several months.


About the Double Portrait Frida Kahlo Painting
This large double self portrait by Frida Kahlo was painted around the time time of her divorce with the Mexican muralist Diego Rivera. Kahlo wore her heart on her sleeve when she painted, in this case almost literally. In the Frida wearing a green dress, she holds a small portrait of Diego Rivera. The painting below is also during her divorce she cut off all her hair.



Frida Kahlo said "Since my subjects have always been my sensations, my states of mind and the profound reactions that life has been producing in me, I have frequently objectified all this in figures of myself, which were the most sincere and real thing that I could do in order to express what I felt inside and outside of myself."


This was when she was pregnant while in Detroit but her fractured pelvis aborted the baby at 3 months





This was at the end of her life she was 47 years old when left this earth and a passage she stated she hoped never to return again



This Painting by Kahlo is titled The Suicide Of Dorothy Hale a New York socialite, who jumped out of the 16th floor of The Hampshire House she was found still wearing her favorite Madame X femme-fatale black velvet dress with a corsage of small yellow roses, given to her by Noguchi a former suitor.

Location:Coyoacan, Mexico

We chatted with Mr. Alex Dominguez for the proper insight, and here are our results.......

Spotlight On:The New It Girl Jessica Burciaga

She has it all from the girl next door appeal, to extreme sex appeal. I first took notice of her when I saw the Jamie Foxx ft Drake "Fall For Your Type" video and to be honest I had to take a sceond glance because I really thought that she was JLO.
