scale images of flowers as well as shells,
leaves, bones and landscapes of New
Mexico.
Of her flower paintings
O'Keeffe wrote in 1926, "I
have painted what each
flower is to me and I have
painted it big enough so that
others would see what I see."
Red Poppy was painted in 1927, this is one of a series of
monumental flower paintings O'Keeffe made. O'Keeffe
was a loner who spent most of her life in isolation in the
desert Southwest.
