Frida Kahlo Series: Uños Cuantos Piquetitos Tiara

This piece is named after one of my favorite works by Frida Kahlo, Uños Cuantos Piquetitos (A Few Small Nips). The painting, shown in the background of the photo below, depicts a murdered woman laying in a bed with the perpetrator standing over her. Kahlo explained that the painting was inspired by the stabbing of a woman by her drunken boyfriend who told the judge, "I only gave her a few small nips".





I love the look of the bracelets all mixed together, many of which are actually designed by a good friend of mine, Louise Gos.

Frida Kahlo Tiara Series: Inmaculada Tiara

These photos are actually taken right behind the boutique in Jackson Square. The old brick buildings have an industrial feel and inspired me to use the street as a backdrop for a series of photos displaying each of the three Frida Kahlo head ornaments. This is the first set, showing the Inmaculada Tiara.
