thinking of Frida
feeling into the trials and joys of her life
roots and wings came to me
she painted her life
through roots and wings
more than the conventional and expected ways

LOVE your Frida with her roots and wings, really wonderful. There's a nice quote from Waitley, 'The greatest gifts you can give your children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence'. Have a great weekend, hugs, Valerie

Very "Frida"!
ReplyDeleteShe looks as serene here as in her own work :)
Excellent, Tammie!!! Good idea. Like a Frida/tree! No doubt, this is a Tammie's Frida! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteRoots and wings. One holds firm and the other soars. Frida must have felt that way in her life. She is such an inspirational woman of courage and joy and laughter. xo Carole
ReplyDeletethis is really Frida !
ReplyDeleteshe surely did, frida did. as always, my eye is drawn to the stippling, great addition to depth. n♥
ReplyDeleteThis is a calm and neat Frida, love what you had made here. Love her wrap-over jacket and necklace which matches her wings.
ReplyDeleteOh, Tammie ~ I LoVe Frida ... and this painting. So beautiful!
ReplyDeleteShe looks like a sister of Frida Kahlo. Her wings are also from a stag.. Her roots are like a warm fire ..I feel with her having sheep: roots, earth - having doves: wings, heaven.
ReplyDeleteMuch challenges in life . The RIGHT fire must burn, fire making warm and giving energy and not destroy
Roots and Wings! Yes, I love your Painting. But there is also a question in it: can you fly, if you have so strong roots?
