I put Frida in her beloved Mexico and put her dress that she had put in her piece titled, 'My Dress Hangs There' in the painting to depict a more happier and at peace Frida. You see, she was very unhappy when she created this because she was tired of being in America in the Big Apple, with Diego and yearned to travel back home to Mexico.  In Frida's painting, She puts her dress in her piece, surrounded by big, grey buildings, industrialization and city life. This kind of life depressed her. She wanted to escape from it all and go back to a simpler way of life, surrounded by colors, nature and her pets. My painting is a continuation of her journey and  into the after life.  We all hope Frida's suffering is over and that she is in a restful place.

Good Evening everyone! Here's the final picture of 'Hanging with Frida' in it's completion. I will elaborate on the idea behind it a little later and details about this original oil. I'm am pleased with the way it turned out. This painting will be a part of my show happening Nov 1st at Gallery 2014! It's getting closer!
