“I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way — things I had no words for.” “Still – in a way – nobody sees a flower – really – it is so small – we haven’t time ’So I said to myself – I’ll paint what I see – what the flower is to me but I’ll paint it big and they will be surprised into taking time to look at it – I will make even busy New Yorkers take time to see what I see of flowers” -Georgia O’Keefe
