Frida Kahlo and artistic identity
This particular painting by Friday Kahlo is a painting I have never seen before. I will attempt to describe this painting based only off what I see. There are several different trees in the painting. I also see an enormous lake in the very back along with clouds. The painting contains a very strange looking animal. The animal appears to be a dear. The dear is in a forest. The deer has several different arrows piercing its body with blood dripping down everywhere. The deer has the face of Frida Kahlo along with hair and horns.
The deer seems to be running through a deserted forest which no one has been in for a long time. The dear has very thin legs and large horns. It appears as if it is going to rain soon. The trees in the forest do not have any fruit or any leaves. The trees are dark brown and they seem not to have any life. I am able to see lightning bolts by the lake. The lake is light blue. There are not any bright colors in the painting indicating the tone of the painting which is gloomy.
Basically the entire picture contains a deer with the head of Frida Kahlo in a forest next to a lake. The dear was been shot multiple times with arrows and there is blood dripping down the body of the deer. Frida Kahlo has a creative dark sided imagination. It was difficult to be descriptive about this painting because I could not add any more detail. The painting is original and I am not sure what it means.
