Anyone who doesn't feel the crosses simply doesn't get that country.
Georgia O'Keefe I believe I would rather have Stieglitz like something - anything I had done - than anyone else I know. Georgia O'Keefe I decided to start anew, to strip away what I had been taught. Georgia O'Keefe I had to create an equivalent for what I felt about what I was looking at - not copy it. Georgia O'Keefe I have things in my head that are not like what anyone has taught me - shapes and ideas so near to me - so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn't occurred to me to put them down.

Georgia O'Keefe One can't paint New York as it is, but rather as it is felt. Georgia O'Keefe To create one's world in any of the arts takes courage. Georgia O'Keefe |
