Georgia O’Keeffe [1887-1986] by Alfred Stieglitz
“I found that I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn’t say in any other way — things that I had no words for.”
Blue and Green Music 1919-1920
“I have things in my head that are not like what anyone taught me — shapes and ideas so near to me, so natural to my way of being and thinking.”
Take care and keep laughing!
