Georgia O'Keeffe was an American abstract painter known for her large-scale paintings of flowers, shells, animal bones, and New Mexico landscapes. She simplified and magnified natural forms using bright colors and close-up perspectives to encourage viewers to notice details they normally overlooked. Her most famous works featured abstracted flower paintings. O'Keeffe divided her time between New York City and rural New Mexico, drawing inspiration from both urban and desert environments.
