Bird Watcher is from the ongoing series of portraits inspired by Frida Kahlo paintings.

The base collage is paper ephemera consisting of receipts, handwritten letters, stamps, envelopes, etc. The portrait is a manipulated photo transfer.

Countless artists have been inspired by the work of Frida Kahlo and I am no exception. Her strong use of universal themes of pain, loss, love and desire are wrought with powerful symbolism. Her uncommon style of robust portraits simultaneously reflect passion and vulnerability with a sensitivity uniquely her own.
