My Corner of the World – Santa Fe’s Georgia O’Keefe Museum

One of the things Heather and I did during out stay in Santa Fe last month was go to The Georgia O’Keefe Museum in Santa Fe. We’ve seen a lot of O’Keefe’s art over the years but they had a lot of things that were different from what we were used to. (And check the link, they have over 1000 works of art by O’Keefe, over 800 photographs, and other pieces of art from people inside O’Keefe’s circle.)

Turns out that O’Keefe was a photographer as well. From what I understand she used a camera to help her remember scenes that she was going to paint later. She was quite prolific artist.

I loved this photo of her cooking, she looks very open and friendly. She didn’t show this side of herself much.

I highly recommend the museum if you happen to be in town.

    Those ‘are’ some lovely works!
    I love the light in the first one and the shades on the ‘Red Hills.’
    Thank you for sharing these beautiful pieces of art.
