the best present


I am almost always riveted each time I read about Frida Kahlo, see reproductions of her work, see a picture of her.

Her work is inspiring in so many ways.

For Christmas I bought a great book for my cousin about Frida, with never published photographs and letters between her and her lover after Diego. She bought me the same book.

It makes me wonder if I'll ever dedicate myself to my work enough to have written really great letters that are discovered years after my death. I wonder if I'll ever make art that transforms anyone else, or myself for that matter.
