November 15, 1887 somewhere near Sun Prairie, Wisconsin
When she was 5,Georgia went to school at a one-room schoolhouse.
She was raise in the O’Keefe’s farmhouse. outside Sun Prairie, near Madison, Wisconsin.
At school she discovered her skill in painting. I’ll be an artist
In
1908 she won the William Merritt Chase still-life prize (prize of still life) with an oil painting.
In the year 1916 the photographer Alfred Stieglitz [Her future husband] He showed interest in his abstract drawings, exposing them in 291, his gallery in New York.
Stieglitz and O’Keeffe began a personal relationship and got married. He had a great influence on her art as she was highly inspired by Stieglitz’s photography.
She was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters in 1962.
She immediately entered the Art Institute of Chicago and spent a year where she developed her skills to the fullest. Then,she enrolled in the Art Student League of New York where she learned with great skill and speed the principles of imitative realism.
In one of my travels to Mexico my husband cheated on me with another woman, now I am a bit sad,but the show must go on...
Georgia was completely devoted to her profession and continued painting independently for as long as she could.
Her eyesight started failing during her later years and she had to take the help of assistants to aid her in painting. She died on March 6, 1986, at the age of 98.
Death is the only one who brings equality for man and woman.
