"When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it's your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not." —Georgia O'Keeffe
The footage is grainy, the sound dimmed. With this Wildlife Art Journal magazine video of the week, set aside just 10 minutes and listen to the story of
Georgia O'Keeffe's love affair with the American West told in her own words (and works). What's especially sweet is how O'Keeffe (1887-1986), in her 90s when the film was produced, lets us get into her head. Enjoy, dear readers, and read a review of a recent book,
Georgia O'Keeffee and Ansel Adams: Natural Affinities about O'Keeffe's friendship with the famed landscape photographer.
