Cactus Flower — Photo-Artistry by kenne
“I feel that a real living form is the natural result
of the individual’s effort to create the living thing
out of the adventure of his spirit into the unknown —
it has where experienced something — felt something —
it has not understood — and from that experience
comes the desire to make the unknown — known —
Making the unknown — known — in terms of one’s medium
is all-absorbing — if you stop to think of the form — as form
you are lost — The artist’s form must be inevitable —
You mustn’t think you won’t succeed –“
— Georgia O’Keeffe in a letter to Sherwood Anderson, 1923
The light reflection from your cactus flower really catches the eye. Georgia O’Keeffe speaks to the soul.
Her words tell you why her paintings speak to the soal. Thanks for the comment.
