Calavera Frida Kahlo: Inspiring others through art

Occasionally I’ll receive an email from someone who was inspired by something I created. It’s a good right-down-to-your-bones feeling to know that something you made with your own hands excited another person enough to make them want to get up and express themselves creatively.

Lord knows I’ve been inspired by other artists in just the same way, time and time again.

Last year I was contacted by a sweet woman named Janet. She was inspired by the Calavera Frida y Diego Collage that my son and I created a few years ago and she wanted to turn it into a quilt. What an honor. I couldn’t be more impressed with the results!

How amazing is this quilt? I just had to share it. Thanks so much, Janet!
