I'm so excited to be participating in
Steph's "Women in Art" ATC swap.
Never having done any Frida tribute art
before, I chose her as my subject.
It was important to me not to look at
any works paying tribute to her
before I began.
I wanted what I created to
lack outside influences.
Another thing I decided was to
just make an impression of her,
and not go for an actual likeness
(which is really simple to do).
I used acrylic paint, colored pencils,
collage, pitt pens, and DMC thread.
They're all a little
different, but still
cohesive as a grouping.
They were fun to create and
I enjoyed having an "assignment"
to work on.
The link is up top if you'd like
to join in the fun. The deadline is
not until March.
I'm one of those people
that don't like waiting until the
last minute. . . for doing anything.
It's one of my husbands
favorite traits about me.
I'm always ready to go
on a moments notice.
Happy Weekend!
