  1. I remember when I saw her for the first time in a Tarantino movie...
    She is so beautiful. Her Frida is fab.

    XOXO

  2. I'm a big fan. Love her acting and her charitable work. Plus, she's my imaginary GF. Lol. Swoonworthy!

    1. @ Boud -- Thanks for nominating her -- she's on the list now! After looking her up, I recognized some of her sculptures but did not know her name before, so I'm pleased to learn more about her! I also now realize I missed the chance to see her Tarot Garden when I was in Tuscany in 2008, darn it.
