Dear Miss Kahlo

I recently jaunted over to my favorite art nook Collage and the DIY Lounge (lucky for me but not my wallet it's ten blocks away) I picked up some black paint and a neat piece of wood with the intention of stenciling. I didn't stencil, but instead picked out a favorite medium of mine: tissue paper and before I knew it I had this below.

wood, acrylic, and tissue paper

Frida Kahlo is one of my most aspired artists, woman, and figure of activism. Now I have my own little piece of her.
