Our starting point on this round was a self-portrait of Frida Kahlo. In keeping with Halloween, I decided to transform Frida into a black cat. The body is made of painted corrugated cardboard and the limbs and tail can be moved. Frida's face is drawn with craypas (oil crayons). The monkey and hummingbird also have moving parts. The necklace of thorns was a challenge but I didn't want to leave it out. Thankfully I found some plastic barbed wire, which did the trick nicely. I wrapped the Frida in a large green momigami sheet which I stamped with leaf patterns. Also found some giant plastic leaves to throw into the mix.
