Bugsabee: Such an inspiration and beauty!
Cyn: Lovely, except for her mustache
Wendy: Lo que no me mata me alimienta... She truly is amazing.
Gaby_: She was amazing. Her words about strangeness are so beautiful.
Amarys: Her life was so tragic, that's why her paintings and quotes were so deep. Diego made her suffer and he was unfaithful. I went to their museum where they used to live in Mexico and it was amazing. I really appreciate her work.
Racheal: DEF one of my favorite artists!!
Sarah: Lovely. She and her husband, Diego Rivera, were known as the Elephant and the Dove. He thought she was beautiful, and loved her universe and mustache😊When they argued she'd cut some of her hair to hurt his feelings.
