Frida Khalo enjoyed art from an early age and in 1925, she began to paint outside of school to help her family who were quite poor. After briefly working as a stenographer, she became a paid engraving apprentice for her art instructor printmaker Fernández. He was impressed by her talent, although she did not consider art as a career at this time.
A severe bus accident at the age of 18 left Frida in lifelong pain. Confined to bed for three months following the accident, she began to paint. She started to consider a career as a medical illustrator, as well, which would combine her interests in science and art. Her mother provided her with a specially-made easel, which enabled her to paint in bed, and her father lent her some of his oil paints. She had a mirror placed above the easel, so that she could see herself and she painted many self portraits in that time as well as documenting her experience of chronic pain. Painting became a way for Frida to explore questions of identity...
My passions are Art, the countryside, animals, nature, my dogs, science and medicine and mental health. I am a Psychiatric Nurse and Researcher by background, so I like to paint medical paintings. I have just had one of my paintings published as the front cover on the 2022 edition of Anatomy and Physiology by Elsevier..... I like to work from the early morning through to lunch and walk my Lurcher through the woods behind me. I gain inspiration from other artists, the countryside, animals and so don't really have a single style because I like to experiment so much. I hope you like my prints and artwork as much as I have enjoyed creating them and I'm really grateful to anyone who buys from me as its my sole source of income.
