Frida had a fascinating life and was a very special woman. She inspired me to make a portrait of her. I used a mannequin, which I changed of course. The earrings, which she almost always wore, I put in Photoshop, as well as the necklace. I also played with colours to get to this result of my Frida.
Your chosen art on canvas, stretched in an aluminum frame. Quick and easy to change for a fresh look and exactly as you want it.
I've been photographing since the beginning of this century. I am a real autodidact, although I have taken courses and mentorships. I don't try to make the 'standard' picture and am often busy for weeks before the result is as I had in mind.
I would have preferred to have mastered painting, like my great uncle Johan Gabriëlse, but unfortunately I don't have a talent for drawing. With my pictures I try to compensate this a bit.
