Many of you know the story of Frida Kahlo and her injury that kept her in plaster corsets throughout her life - and the fact that she could not carry a child to term (yes, Linda, that's supposed to represent an umbilical cord). While going through the book I have, I came up with these images and things (the corset was on her bed in one of the photos), adding things here and there. It isn't finished yet. I think all women suffer in various ways but our stories are not so publicized.

More, more :) Yup, we live in a good time... no corsets!
This is VERY interesting. Not your everyday watercolor and I like it!
Is that an umbilical cord I see? Very different work.
Great pain indeed. Very interesting .
