Framed Georgia O’Keeffe paintings capture beautiful blossoming flora in a zoomed in macro that gives unusual and striking points of view. “Oriental Poppies, 1928” is a stunning painting of oriental poppies in full bloom, their black centers contrasted by the hot orange crepe paper petals. “Black Iris, 1906,” maintains the tension of delicate and strong, the dark folded petals of a black iris layered in light washes of pink.
Framed Georgia O’Keeffe art is iconic and captures American scenes of the western wilds. “Ram’s Skull with Brown Leaves,” depicting a ram’s skull sitting with two brittle fallen leaves, it is a nod to the beauty of death and the fragility of life. “Pelvis with the Distance” displays a pelvic bone acting as a window into the expansive plains beyond, the blue sky stretching out to the ends of time.
“Another Church, Hernandez, New Mexico,” is done is muted sandy browns, depicting a hacienda style building, situated in front of golden rolling hills doted in green shrubs and a bright blue sky hanging overhead. Contrasting the sharp squared lines of a red barn and the soft edges of a sand mound, “Ends of Barns, 1922” is a somber look into life on the plains done in a precisionism style.
