"To me they are as beautiful as anything I know. To me they are strangely more living than the animals walking around. The bones seem to cut sharply to the center of something that is keenly alive on the desert even though it is vast and empty and untouchable and knows no kindness with all its beauty ”


Red Canna, 1924 - Georgia O'Keeffe

“I made you take time to look at what I saw, and when you took time to really notice my flowers, you hung all your own associations with flowers on my flower and you write about my flower as if I think and see what you think and see of the flower — and I don’t.” 
Flower of Life II, 1925, 1918 by Georgia O'Keeffe
