Georgia O'Keefe art

  1. Georgia O'Keefe's famous paintings of flowers featured extreme close up views with great detail of color. Her use of color and contour created abstract views of nature. To begin choose a flower photo Begin your Georgia O'Keefe style flower art by practicing on scrap paper .To create your O'Keefe flower focus on one small part of the flower or flower photo. Fill up the paper with your drawing. Create lines and color tone by layering the paint and pastel one over the other. As you color over the pastels layering them, they blend into wonderful colors and tones.
