Frida is my Hero!




Frida never knew how much of an impact she would be on women/men and how much her paintings will change peoples attitudes on life. She suffered unimaginable pain, heart break, and critisism and lucky for us she chose to express herself by painting her life, her dreams, and her anguish.



Not sure if Frida had a nice house in the States, not sure if she drove a Mercedes Benz, but I do know she had a talent that did not hide anything do to shame or critisism. She perfectly described many things that artists and people could relate to. She described pain, feelings of hopelessness, and depicted the people she loved.


I am not sure how she persisted on painting things that brought her so much pain and sorrow.



Frida was very beautiful. Although she is not considered "pretty" in our society I consider her to be a very beautiful person all around. She was lucky in life to have found and loved one of the worlds best Muralist and in him found a little bit of hope.



Diego and Frida a combination with the likes of Paul McCarny & John Lennon.

very interesting jose-- I think the only way she was able to remain alive through all her pain--bith psychological and physical was through painting...
don't forget I need "proof" of your museum visit...

I liked your view on this. I gave my tribute speech in class about her. She was an admirable woman.

Frida wanted to be a doctor but started painting after her accident. It was a way for her to cope with the pain and occupy her mind. I wondered if she would have discovered this talent in her without the accident.

I think that painting was a pain killer for her. I also think she is pretty (look at the photos of her)
