Description
Mixed media ( acrylic and collage) on canvas
This is the last of my Fridas, will be the last? Who knows �
I�ve painted this Frida accompanied by small butterflies in the background and with a white butterfly in the center of the necklace. Frida learned to transform their pain into art, she was able to transform itself �
Butterfly is a symbolic animal in many cultures. On the one hand suggests the capacity for metamorphosis and beauty, and secondly also the ephemeral nature of joy and life.Some scientific studies have shown that the butterfly is the only living being capable of changing entirely its genetic structure during the transformation process: the DNA of the caterpillar, which enters the cocoon is different of the Butterfly which arises. It is therefore the symbol of total transformation.

Your ability to capture so many different textures in your paintings is amazing! I love looking into all those fine details, the braided necklace, the embroidered top & background. Absolutely fantastic!
