She loved to do paintings since childhood. And her father’s printmaker friend Fernando Fernández used to help him develop this skill.
In 1925, Kahlo started working after school to help her family. Later she started working as a stenographer for Fernández. Kahlo was a very good medical student in school. But at the age of 18, she had a bus accident and had to bear such pain for the rest of her life.

But this accident also happened a good thing in her life. After the accident, she had to stay in bed for 3 months. During this time, Frida Kahlo started to paint which she had left for a long time.
After recovery, she started her career as a medical illustrator. This increased her interest in science and art.
Frida Kahlo’s paintings were inspired by European artists like Sandro Botticelli and Bronzino. She brought the thoughts going on in her mind in the paintings. Also, Painting helped Frida Kahlo a lot to know herself better.
In 1927, she also became interested in politics, so Frida joined the Mexican Communist Party. During this, she met Mexican artist Diego Rivera. The meeting turned into love and in 1929 they got married.
In 1937, the paintings of Frida Kahlo caught the attention of Surrealist artist André Breton. He liked Frida’s paintings very much. So in 1938 he held a solo exhibition of Frida’s paintings at the Julien Levy Gallery in New York and in 1939 in Paris.

In the 1940s she worked as an art teacher at the National School of Painting, Sculpture and Engraving and also became a founding member of the Mexican Culture Seminar.
Around the 1940s, her health had deteriorated a bit and it started getting worse day by day. In 1954, Frida Kahlo died at the age of 47 due to ill health and high fever.
After her death, no one knew her paintings and art until the 1970s. But later some art historians saw the paintings of Frida Kahlo and in the 1990s she was recognized as an important figure of art history.
Today her works are celebrated as symbols of Mexican national and indigenous traditions, and Google also celebrates Frida Kahlo’s birthday with a google doodle.
