I read this book a long time ago, after first seeing some of the works of Georgia O'Keefe at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago. I remember it being a wonderful feeling, something in her paintings resonated at a deep level, I didn't understand it, but I felt it and thus began a curious exploration into her life and works.
I remember this now, because her name has begun to pop up on my radar again, first with this novel [b:Georgia: A Novel of Georgia O'Keeffe|25852871|Georgia A Novel of Georgia O'Keeffe|Dawn Tripp|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1444240304s/25852871.jpg|45720716] due for publication in Feb 2016 and then recently the discovery of a major retrospective of her work, planned from Jul 6 to Oct 30 at the Tate Modern in London, 100 years after her New York debut.

Good overall but too much Stieglitz and not enough on her later life.
This is one of my favorite books. I didn’t want it to end. It felt like I got to know Georgia so well. Even if you’re not a artist or into art, this was such a powerful story of her life.
4 stars for this one. I found it extremely interesting and it definitely increased my love of Georgia and her art. She was one narcissistic, strong, talented woman, that is for sure!
