This little watercolor of Frida Kahlo seems appropriate to this week's Illustration Friday Theme of Sacrifice.... she gave up many things - some by choice, and others by circumstances beyond her control. (sold)

Beautifully done! Lovely technique. You might want to resubmit it to IF; as the direct link provided doesn't work.
Lovely watercolor, your blog has many beautiful pieces.
What a beautiful watercolor of Frida. Your painting conveys her vulnerability and femininity so well, while also capturing her strength. Well done. Bravo!
beautiful watercolor!
I love this watercolour. She is so strong and yet vulnerable. She is an inspiration to us all.
Beautiful. Fantastic colours and a wonderful depiction of Frida Khalo.
Great job!
Wov what a painting, it really salutes the artist. I just took some time to find about her struggles and she indeed made many sacrifices-but what an artist she was !
Wonderful. Frida would have approved.
Lovely work. You have done a beautiful watercolour. I thought of Frida too, I admire her life and art.
oh oh oh.yes this is my favourite. I'm so impressed.
That is so beautiful. I love Frida and her art and you have definitely done her justice here.
This is beautiful and she is one of my personal "she"ros (like heros). THanks for a great post.
