Being Frida

Thank you Patrice for the fascinating theme for this week´s DC ( Drawing Challenge ): 

FRIDA

This time I wanted to have fun and play and dress up, pretend being Frida Kahlo one moment.

I suppose Frida and I have something in common:

strong eyebrows, dark hair, being a painter.. and yes, 

I also do have some wounds, although they aren´t as visible, severe and overwhelming as Frida`s.  Anyway, I think being aware of fragility in  life makes me an artist.

Joulumaalari

Tänä vuonna osa antamistani lahjoista syntyi havaintomaalauskurssin aikana.
Keskimmäinen työ on tehty tunnilla, se on  20 minuutin maalaus -croquis.
Muotokuvat on maalattu valokuvien pohjalta kurssin ulkopuolella.
