Hi!

I was wondering how many other people like Frida Kahlo and her art as much as I do!

For this swap, we will each have 2 partners, and will create 3 ATCs for each partner. However, here's a little twist: Each partner MUST receive: ~1 ATC of FRIDA ~1 ATC of a work painted by Frida and 1 ATC of Artist Choice about Frida or her work. By artist Choice I mean you pick if you want to make one with her picture or something she painted.

:)

Each ATC must be the standard size of 2.5 inches x 3.5 inches.

THIS IS INTERNATIONAL

All participants MUST have a 4.7 rating or higher, or I will ban you. :( I hate to do this, but with the number of No Sends on my previous swaps, it's very unfair to the faithful and reliable people that send.

Also if you have flaked on someone in one of the past swaps I've hosted, I do know about it, and you will be banned from my swaps. I do keep records of the flakers.

Please note, if you are a newbie and have never participated in a swap, just drop me a line, Newbies are always welcome.

When you say Artist Choice about Frida or her work , I wouldn't know where to start. I have a group of friends who swap here who will want to join, I'll definitely let them know.

Saw the film about her for the first time the other day and finally got a handle on her artwork. She poured her heart into it all didnt she...........am confused by what you mean too about the third atc.......artists choice one? You mean interpret what another artist ( critic) says about her and then put it into a piece of atc work? You may get a mixed bag there lol

I interpret #3 to be that the ATC can be like #1 (of Frida) or #2 (her artwork) or be a more abstract interpretation of what a "Frida Kahlo ATC" should be like.

yep, I meant that the 3rd ATC could be either a picture about Frida, or her work.
