The Stillness Speaks


Frida Kahlo- The Stillness Speaks - 5 x 7 on wood

This painting was resurrected from my discarded pile. I originally hated the hair and decided to just paint the entire background black. But, then that looked too weird so I decided to draw in the hair with graphite pencil. I actually love how it turned out. She's off to a new home, and I will miss her.

    Oh, I understand how difficult it can be to part with a piece you've created.
