Frida in Tile

 

During that time between Christmas and the new year, a friend and I drove out to the far northern reaches of Scottsdale and had lunch at the Four Seasons Resort.  That's where I saw this mural of Frida Kahlo made of tiles and mounted on a wall near the entrance to the restaurant.  I'm not quite sure if the tiles were painted before they were assembled on the wall or after.  Whichever it is still a nice mural. 


I also snapped a photo of the hotel's Christmas tree in the middle of the lobby.  I'm sure all these holiday decorations have been put away by now.

It is surprising how much Scotsdale there is.

Frida's eyes are so beautiful but full of pain. She had a difficult life in so many ways.

The mural is wonderful, Sharon.

Nice Frida mural! I once interviewed a woman who made tile murals for a grocery store chain in Florida; if I remember correctly, she painted the murals with the tiles all positioned as they would be placed, and then fired them before mounting them on the wall.

The mural is amazing especially on a tile.
