Frida Kahlo-The Broken Column

Published:
3.1K Views

Description

This picture is the most detailed peice i have attempted so far. And i am damned proud of it, too! So please...save your harsh criticism.
For those of you who dont know, Frida Kahlo was a mexican artist, she was married to Diego Riviera, and this painting is about her back, which she had trouble with her entire life due to an accident when she was young. I dont want to go into it too much, but basically, Frida is my hero, and the movie "Frida" is fairly accurate and very very good, so go see that.
See the original by Frida Kahlo here [link]

I will list only the obvious stock artists whos stock i used, because i used tons and tons of it.
Frida: *Rachastock
Left arm: *LongStock
Right arm: sxc.hu
Skirt cloth: *flaviacabral
hair brushes: ~Ishtuwazu =vaia ~Pepstock
column: ~stock-deekayed
tear brushes: ~Cynthetic
nails/tacks: *michmellow
textures: *textureific ~DarkMaiden-Stock ~charon *LunaNYXstock
BG: sxc.hu and some textures above

The straps i cut off of the original painting by Frida Kahlo because im not that good at painting yet. I dont think she would mind...
