My Backyard Georgia O’Keefe, My Backyard, Oil on Canvas

My Backyard Describe: What style or styles is the work done in? List the nature forms you see. Are they true to life? Why or Why not? Does the space appear flat, shallow, or deep? Where do you see warm, cool, and contrasting colors?

My Backyard Describe: Style combines representational and abstraction Forms include rock cliff formations cut from erosion, foreground includes red and blue green patches of ground and green tree shapes Space appears shallow and compressed in horizontal bands Green Trees contrast with the red browns. Value contrasts are in the rock formations.

My Backyard Analyze How does the space differ from traditional perspective? Is there a face in the mountains?

My Backyard Interpret What do you think was most important to the artist? What feelings or moods do you identify with the painting? Explore a simile or metaphor to help clarify what this artwork says to you Ex. Eroded forms dance across the cliff wall. E.x. The cliff rises from the desert floor like a sleeping giant.
