Frieda Kahlo



Gwen and I were inspired to make a rice crispy treat interpretation of Frieda Kahlo's "Self-Portrait". I had made a similar work of art with a former roommate in the form of Stewie Griffin, the cartoon baby from the television show Family Guy. Creating Frieda was MUCH harder than we had anticipated. I have observed that the crispy treat is much easier to work with if we had used JetPuff rather than the traditional marshmallows, though the latter tastes much better. Below is Stewie and our attempt at Frieda. Poor Frieda... at least we got a good laugh.
