Georgia O'Keeffe

 

One of my favorite artists, Georgia O'Keeffe, was born yesterday, November 15, 1887 near Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. She was living in Abiquiu, New Mexico when I was living in Taos. O'Keeffe was influenced by the concept of synesthesia--the experience of "crossed senses"--such as hearing images or seeing sounds. She died in Santa Fe on March 6, 1986. Happy birthday Georgia!
