Though i can't give a link, look up her background!.
There was a point in her life where she was in a type of accident that left her paralyzed!. SHe used to paint self-portraits of herself when she lied in bed!. She would have a mirror on the ceiling!.

The physical limitations were a major, if not the ultimate, factor that influenced her style!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I agree with the first answerer, but I'd add that she was very influenced by traditional Mexican painting as well!. She is not easy to put into one category!.

I believe she mostly painted in oils!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
