Bringing art, self and expression to children's hearts

Artist Frida Kahlo was considered one of Mexico’s greatest artists best known for her uncompromising and brilliantly colored self-portraits that had an unflinching interest of self-identity.

Students will learn to paint a portrait of themselves in the style of Frida Kahlo inspired by elements of their own heritage and background. More advanced students will focus on defined brushwork while the younger group will focus more on honing their blending technique using a variety of brushes.

In this vibrantly expressive artwork, students will also adorn their portrait with mixed-media embellishments displaying their culture, traditions and identity. They will enjoy the creative process of discovering their ethnic roots through the Arts and they get to preserve a glimpse of their creativity, a parcel of their lifetime in this art piece.

What about boys? Boys will adorn their portrait with elements of their culture on the shirt of their painting.
