ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Frida Kahlo is an iconic Mexican artist and a great inspiration to me. She transformed her personal pain into art, a feat that resonates deeply with me. Her surrealistic artwork is celebrated worldwide, and I am delighted to present my interpretation of her portrait. My artwork, featuring Frida Kahlo, was displayed on a major Times Square billboard. It was one of 60 artworks selected from 5,000 submissions by the NFT NYC team. My painting combines elements of pop art, the vibrant colors of Mexican heritage, and touches of folk art. The traditional Frida accessory, the flower tiara, is brought to life with layers of oil paint applied with a palette knife. This tiara symbolizes a connection to nature, harmonizing with the traditional Mexican folk dress. Additionally, her iconic eyebrows are meticulously portrayed. Frida's life story and artistic achievements continue to inspire countless female artists and women. She demonstrated the boundless strength and resilience of women, stepping out of the shadows of her famous partner to become a powerful and recognizable figure in her own right. This artwork is an oil painting created with a palette knife on canvas and has been coated with a layer of professional varnish to protect it from sunlight and dust.
