Portrait of an Artist: A Biography of Georgia O'Keeffe
by Laurie Lisle
A very solid biography, that is thoroughly researched. Lisle portrays Georgia as someone who always knew who she was and what she wanted, in her uncompromising desire to create art. Georgia's early life in Wisconsin, her years teaching in Texas, and her relationship with Stieglitz are described in great detail, along with her relationships with family and friends.
I especially enjoyed hearing about Georgia's process. The way she would become inspired to paint, but bring such organization to her painting. She kept careful notes for color mixing and her attention to detail in all things was legendary. She had a prickly personality, and a big one.
