Mexican Colours

"Frida and Diego, Passion, Politics and Painting" has just closed at the Art Gallery of Ontario.  I was lucky enough to see the exhibition twice. On my first trip, I was mezmerized by the story of their lives and on the second I was able to just enjoy the art, for art sake.  It was a fantastic exhibit and their lives are legendary, but I've been so caught up with my new press that I didn't think much about their work when I was creating these two new paintings.   Then my husband looked at them and commented that I'd used the Mexican colours I'd seen at the show.  He was right!  Those colours had gone right into my subconscious and come out in my paintings. I hope you enjoy them! They're in my Etsy shop now : )
