“I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me – shapes and ideas so near to me – so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn’t occurred to me to put them down. ”
“I hate flowers – I paint them because they’re cheaper than models and they don’t move. ”
– Georgia O’Keeffe
The more I learn about O’Keeffe, the more I am in awe of her. She knew herself and lived accordingly; no one ever told her what to do at her peak time, and she never bowed to conventional wisdom. She sure inspires me. See you in the morning. Today has been a very full and rewarding day.
The zinnia is a study in the complexity of a flower, Beautiful!
I believe you and Georgia O’Keefe had a few things in common.
