Visionary artist Frida Kahlo has become the most celebrated female artist of our era.Through a pioneering creative process of candid self expression, both her art and personal life have become a cultural phenomenon, offering revolutionary inspiration as we navigate ourselves through an age of great transformation.

This workshop introduces acrylic techniques and the versatility of combined/mixed mediums. Inspired by her many self portaits, each will be creating their unique VISION OF FRIDA. Artists will be painting on a pre-sketched canvas. We will share wisdoms, strengths, quotes and techniques, both in her art and in her personal life, with optional journaling and writing if you choose. This is more than a painting workshop! This is the creative life..

Note: There is a $15 supply fee payable to the instructor the first day of class.
