What to make of her?
According to the book Frida (a Mexican artist) by Barbara Mujica,
She was a tantrum kid. Had fickle loyalties. Acquired lovers for a sense of achievement. Loved the protection and care of her lovers but liked to make them feel that she was devouring them instead. When her husband Diego went after other women, she pretended that she shared his passions and understood the artistic hunger for beauty. Yet she would be insanely jealous. She enjoyed playing with situations. Like saying the wrongest things, that often revealed truths, in front of people. She painted but was unsure of her talent. She was self-obsessed which is why she did so many self-portraits. In the book, she was portrayed as a typical drama queen. A woman with many failings but always the centre of attention. She liked to push things to the LIMIT, reminds me of the Joker from Batman, who creating havoc just for the pleasure of it, not for money. For the stirrings of panic. Peg-leg Frida.
