Artwork description:

I just finished this print/painting. I wanted to draw Frida with one of her peasant blouses on, and one where she's wearing a lot of jewelry, especially the hand earring that Picasso gave her. The hand represents gratitude for the helping hand of others.

I drew the image onto linoleum, carved out the negative space, printed it onto printing paper and colored it in with watercolor and gouache.

Materials used:

linoleum, carving tools, printing paper and ink, watercolor and gouache
