British-Born Surrealist Painter Leonora Carrington Dies at Age 94 in Mexico City

British-Born Surrealist Painter Leonora Carrington Dies at Age 94 in Mexico City


This woman had a great gift. She was the last of the original Surrealists. A mind that made the most incredible creatures live and breathe in oil. The story of her life reads like a great novel. Born to privilege in the U.K, she left to live a life of courage, rebellion and art. And along the way she painted the marvelous paintings that I love to look at...often.
I salute you Leonora Carrington.
