Homage to Frida Kahlo


Homage to Frida Kahlo
oil on board

Yes, doing what passes through my head
In between prepping wood for the next painting, and waiting for paint to dry between layers I am always working on something. If it's not knitting for the jafagirls textile totems, then it's painting a crushed can or a stone,or sewing a happy doll for the art vending machine, making noses, scribbling in my sketchbook, or just doodling in the studio.


Ah! some have said it is nice I have time.
time
When did time have anything to do with a powerful thirst to create?
