Desesperacíon

This is the first painting of my 2017 Frida Kahlo inspired pieces.  It is one of three.  This year I'm focusing on the emotions of Frida and the first one is about sadness.  She had so much pain and suffering throughout her life with having poor health, a horrendous bus accident, and also heart break.  I show cased all of it inside this painting, with her sitting in a wheel chair and also a portrait of Diego.  She said, "  There have been two great accidents in my life. One was the trolley, and the other was Diego. Diego was by far the worst" .  I added a light shining from the top right corner as a symbol of hope, like never give up;  always, look up, and you will see the hope in the light. I think that is what she did, despite all of her pain

Every year, since 2013, I hand carve a unique stamp to represent that year of art.  I use this stamp on all original paintings, limited edition prints, and all print packages.
