“So I said to myself, I’ll paint what I see what the flower is to me, but I’ll paint it big, and they will be surprised into taking the time to look at it – I will make even New Yorkers take time to see what I see of flowers...” – Georgia O’Keeffe.
If I were to study flower art, I’d study flowers as a kind of natural sculpture; that’s how I look at them in my photography. I love the shapes and curves of flowers, and like O’Keeffe, the closer I get, the more people will pay attention to them. Flowers have given me a beautiful new way to see and understand the world.
See you in the morning.
Stunners, Jon. There are so many components to a flower and you celebrate them all,
