Frida Kahlo was an exceptional artist who ‘wore her heart on her sleeve’ so to speak. ... Frida married an aspiring great artist, Diego Riviera, and in her painting Frida and Diego Riviera she portrays Diego as a great artist, wielding pallet and brushes and herself as an adoring wife to a genius. ... The painting Henry Ford Hospital vividly marks the beginning of Frida’s journey into alternative visions. ... Three cultures in Mexico, which greatly influenced Frida’s work, were the Sun, the Pyramid and the Moon. ... The Skyscrapers look like tombstones and machinery to Frida depicts bad luck and pain. ... A terrible time in Frida’s life, which stands out, was when her sister and husband slept together. ... One Frida was the unloved Frida. ... The other Frida was the loved Frida. ... Throughout Frida’s works she uses animals as a form of symbolisation.
