I have loved Frida Khalo since I learned about her in my high school Spanish class (a while back). At first, when I saw her drawings and paintings, I thought it was kind of weird. However, after hearing the story behind the her art, it is very powerful and inspiring. This woman went through a lot. I absolutely love the movie with Salma Hayek. That is an intense role, and she rocked it. If you have not see the movie, I recommend it. According to one of my former Spanish teachers, Khalo was actually pretty but she painted and drew herself like she was ugly and unattractive.
