COURSE DECRIPTION
Georgia O'Keeffe (November 15, 1887 – March 6, 1986) was the second of
seven children. By age 10, she had decided to become an artist. She is best
known for her paintings of flowers, New York skyscrapers, and New Mexico
landscapes. In 2014, the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum was established in Santa Fe.
In this workshop, we will be blending a vibrant pallet to produce abstracted shapes inspired by nature.
