This work is inspired by a photograph of Frida Kahlo taken by Nickolas Muray, belonging to The Jacques and Natasha Gelman Collection of 20th Century Mexican Art / The Verge, Nickolas Muray Photo Archives. Sastoque’s rendition of this vibrant photograph exemplifies a playful mastery of col- or. His trademark brushstrokes alter, in a spirited way, Kahlo’s most recognizable accents such as her floral headdress and decadent jewelry. Sastoque’s dynamic technique brings movement to the piece, while his use of pointillism brings Kahlo’s striking facial features 
and emotion to the forefront
