FRIDA! FRIDA KAHLO.
I LOVE THIS PAINTING.
It cost me a lot of money. Ashley
Longshore painted it – she's
my goddaughter. She and my
daughter went to school together.
They were truants together. Her
mama put her in boarding school
and I put Amy in boarding school,
and that's how we all met. She
lives in New Orleans now.
She's an amazing artist.
SO MANY OF THESE
PAINTINGS ARE MINE.
The flowers, the trees,
the camellias, the chair.
That's Chuck's sister Judy.
This is one of my first
paintings – it's the same
interior that's in the other
room in here.
THOSE ARE
CHUCK'S HANDS.
We had them cast. We also got
a set of our hands together, of
us holding hands – that's in our
house in Savannah. Get this –
the woman who cast these was
blind. She came to our house,
of course she had someone to
drive her, and cast our hands
using this bucket of
green slime.
