Abstract



"I said to myself, I have things in my head that are not like what anyone else has taught me -- shapes and ideas so near to me -- so natural to my way of being and thinking that it hasn't occurred to me to put them down.  I decided to start anew, to strip away what I have been taught."
                                                                                                         Georgia O'Keefe

Really lovely. I'm such a sucker for purple or lilac. Love the quote too. Hadn't hear it before. Thanks for sharing. I'm a bit of a quote junkie...

What delicate flowers! And a great photo. This is something that Georgia O'Keefe might have painted.

Mary, love your work, very very beautiful photos.
Please tell me, what camera do you have, and what lens are you shooting with?

Georgia O'Keefe is one of my favorites. Are these crocus from last spring?

When I saw the photo, I said, "This is how Georgia O'Keefe would paint." Then you used a quote from her. Perfect. And beautiful.
