When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, its your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not. – Georgia OKeeffe
I hate flowers — I paint them because theyre cheaper than models and they dont move. – Georgia OKeeffe
I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldnt say any other way – things I had no words for. – Georgia OKeeffe
I decided that if I could paint that flower in a huge scale, you could not ignore its beauty. – Georgia OKeeffe
