Welcome to the World of… Georgia O’Keeffe
Born: Nov.15, 1887 Happy Birthday!! Died: 1986 Her husband (the famous photographer) Alfred Stieglitz
She is well known for painting not only flowers….
But also for rocks…
Sea Shells…
Animal bones…
And landscapes…
Many times she zoomed in so much, that her art became abstract.
1. Art that does not attempt to represent external reality, but seeks to achieve its effect using shapes, forms, colors, and textures. 2. Simplifying images or objects into lines, shapes and colors… ABSTRACT
"I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.” “I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way, things I had no words for."
