3. Without Hope Without Hope ,1945
Was made after all the surgeries that she had
the artists portraits what she considers as “forced feeding”
The wooden funnel that once held for painting now holds a funnel of continuously feeds her
Since she is unable to control the situation … the situation seems to be “without hope

4. A Few Small Nips
This painting was created when Frida was broken hearted on the affair her husband had hey younger sister in 1935
She projected her pain into another woman's misfortune
A newspaper report of an unfaithful woman murdered by jealousy provided Kahlo with this subject
“but it was just a few small nips!” the violent deed gave symbolic reference to Frida's own mental state and her emotional injuries
In the sketch with one dove it had said “my sweetie doesn't love me anymore” but in the final painting with two doves it said “a few small nips”

5. Self Portrait With Necklace of Thorns
she unraveled Christ crown of thorns and wears it an a necklace , by doing this she presents herself as Christian
The thorns digging into her neck symbolic for pain she feels from her divorcee with Diego
The humming nerd out stretched wings echo Frida's joined eyebrows. In Mexican folk tale they are charms to bring luck in love
The black cat signifies bad luck and death that awaits to pounce on the humming bird
The monkey is the symbol of the decal
Butterflies represent resurrection
Th9is painting was made the year 1940

6. Reflection
I found it very interesting on doing this power point. Each painting Frida Kahlo made represenmted something to her. After her accident she put all her pain into those painting. Each painting signifies something. Frida is an inspiration to me.
