Why This Self Portrait is Important

Painted in 1940, this self portrait is the most symbolic version of Frida Kahlo you'll get. The thorn necklace and blood pour from her neck, but she appears calm. There's a black cat, a monkey, a hummingbird around her neck that hangs dead (although it symbolizes hope), and the butterflies in her hair exist to promise metamorphosis through suffering. It's created for the woman herself, for political reasons, and it's the most poetic representation.

A Painting that Speaks to You

With this paint by numbers kit, you paint Frida's life brush stroke by brush stroke. The jungle and tones of her background provide depth and texture, while her facial features are contrasting in tone but separated by outlines. The blooming foliage acts as a flow, and the animals add meaning to the piece.

For the Artist Who Appreciates More Than Color

Many will appreciate this kit who love stories more than pretty pictures. As you paint, you'll understand the history behind each hue and how Frida lent herself to such surrealism. For those who love Kahlo or just love art with such depth of meaning and emotion, this is a chance to stop and appreciate her.
