Georgia O’Keeffe
How does she show an understanding of the nature of her community in her paintings?
“Ram’s Head with White Hollyhock”
1935, Oil on Canvas
O’Keeffe would often combine landscapes of the places she lived and visited with objects that had symbolic meaning
to her.
“From the Faraway Nearby”
1937, Oil on Canvas
O’Keeffe experimented with scale and space to emphasize the
relationships between the objects and landscapes that inspired her.
A landscape includes the features of a land or area. In art,
landscapes are considered for their visual appeal.
“Pelvis with the Distance”
1943, Oil on Canvas
O’Keeffe arranged her objects and
landscapes in ways that showed
similarities in their shape and
line.
