Beth, did you ever see Zen’s Pencils about Frida? It’s how I learned about Frida! And I love her quote. Imagine, knowing when you were painting something that you do it to keep them alive forever.

Love Frida. So much. Strong, brilliant, brave fighter, for what she believed in. Deigo never deserved her.

One of my all-time favourites! She even painted her pains and sorrows into her works. I always felt that this woman was just way ahead of her times, don’t you think? 🙂
