I have decided to continue on and do a full portrait study of Frida. It may not take up the whole journal but I plan to do a collection of Frida Portraits from some amazing photographs I found of her.
This is a beginning of page 2 in my "Art Journal Study of Frida". I decided to add some text about here inside a few of her facial features.

ReplyDeleteThe lettering is such a good idea for this one. The entire journal will be spectacular.

Rebecca; these are simply amazing! I was really impressed with her life story! I relate to her being in pain all her life and I have thought about how I could create art while resting sometimes. I am doing better though, nothing like her pain I am sure!
ReplyDeleteAre you going to leave this one black and white? I love the text on her face. I am starting to put together a "reference journal" with different texturizing ideas, zentangles, all sorts of stuff and I am excited about it!
I have awarded you an award on my blog just because I thought about how much your blog inspires me. Thank you for your HUGE inspiration m'dear. Hugs.
Another great Frida my friend.
ReplyDeleteThese promise to be such a great series Rebecca. The last one turned out absolutely stunning. I'm sure the lady herself would be most honoured!
ReplyDeleteWhat a phenomenal series this will be, Rebecca! This journal portrait of Frida is, once again, amazing. I'm mesmerized by the strength of this portraiture. Again, another "Standing O"!!! Happy Weekend! Hugs, Terri xoxo

This is striking! I love the lettering.
ReplyDeletei really like your frida's work
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness, she's wonderful ~~ the daisies, peace signs, and words are fabulous details for her, and your addition of the flowers in her hair is the perfect finish. ... but can you resist the temptation to add color, lol? Black and white, or colorful, she's absolutely beautiful, Rebecca!
ReplyDeleteCould this be anymore amazing--I'm so fascinated on how you create your faces--absolutely love the text in her face!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful, I really like it in black and white. Are you planning on adding color?
