Frida and her Doll' is painting #2 out of 3 in my Frida series for 2016. It was inspired by two images; one a beautiful black and white photograph of her in a dress with intricate designs, and the second is an original painting of hers titled, "Me and my Doll". When I first began this painting, I was only going to recreate her in the dress, but I felt something was missing. In the preliminary sketch I put a couple of cats with her, and on the wall beside her was going to be a different original painting, created by her. I changed my mind about the original painting, and decided to base it on her original titled, "Me and my Doll". I identify with that one more, because my Mom was an avid doll collector, and I grew up with a lot of dolls. I replaced the cats idea with inserting a baby doll; one created from my imagination to correspond with the doll in her painting. These two subjects, then brought balance to the piece. I enjoyed coordinating the colors of her dress with the colors in her original painting.
