Wistful Frida
ink and watercolour
30.5 x 45.7 cm (12" x 18")

Winnipeg's anonymous Frida Kahlo artist is back at work. (Previous paintings of Frida can be seen in the archives for November 2007.)

With this painting I love the sense one has, of an artist being completely involved the work, without any concerns over what anyone might think. It allows one to enjoy the painting in a similar way.

(By the way, that's Frida's pet dog, Diego, peaking up from the corner of the page.)
