Frida

Image result for frida paintings grandparents

My Grandparents, my parents and me was created by an amazing and eccentric painter in 1936. Frida Kahlo created this painting for the little girl being herself in the painting holding a red ribbon that represents the family blood line. both sides of Frida's family are presented above in attempt to show the viewers of her on creative personal family tree. the art work is detailed and define when looking at the cacti and buildings and body of water behind and below the floating image of the family. I am very impressed with the background and the detail within the generations on the canvas.

Lito Mayo was a Filipino  artist since the 1970's. I love the creativity in this painting,  Self-Portrait of Lio Mayo made in 1981.
