There are a lot of artists, musicians, writers, photographers and other creatives that inspire me. I was introduced to the life and works of Georgia O'Keefe when I was a student at ASU and I've been a fan ever since. One of her paintings is displayed at the NC Museum of Art and I get to enjoy it a couple of times each year. Now there's a traveling exhibit just an hour from me... I can't wait to see it!
It occurs to me that from time to time I must subconsciously be recalling the spirit of Georgia when I'm pointing my camera lens.

I love Georgia O'Keefe too - she was an amazing painter and an amazing woman. Your photos are amazing too!! Speaking of amazing photos - have you ever seen the work of a early-20th Century American photographer called Edward Weston? I think you would really like him :-)
I've heard his name but I'm not sure I've ever seen his photos. Will have to head to the library and see what I can find!
Love her body of art!
Yes, you do seem to have an O'Keefe eye for your photos. I love the one with the leaves and lichens. Gorgeous.
Such lovely curves, in nature and it's art!
This is great to have such a great artist as inspiration for your own work. Wonderful pictures.
She was an amazing artist and woman and you have definitely channeled her in your photos!
Love your pictures more...
:)
Wonderful photos all.
wow! i think you are right!
for some reason i know the name georgia o'keefe but i didn't recognize any of the work. strange. will have to investigate!
Beautiful! :)
Seeing the beauty in color, shape and texture. You two are peas in a pod!
lovely post, and beautifully composed. i favor figurative art, and probably because it does have some elements in common with photography!
wow - these are gorgoues!!
I feel like I can touch them.
thanks for sharing these.
How lovely! Enjoy your week my friend and thanks for sharing this beautiful art! I haven't been to a museum in awhile...it's time! Hugs!
It's her colors that I like, and the flow.
Nature is better at composing though - always.
