The Amazing Georgia O'keeffe Exhibit At The AGO!!!!!!

I am so happy that I had a chance to visit the Georgia O'keeffe exhibit at the Art Gallery of Ontario before it left!  What an awesome artist and woman, decades ahead of her time. The pioneer of modernism, she applied nearly as much to self presentation.....the clothes she wore, the places she lived and the way she furnished and decorated them! She also controlled the way she was photographed, the photograph below was by Yousuf Karsh taken when she was in her seventies at her home in New Mexico. There were also photographs by Andsel Adams who was also a close friend of Georgia, mostly taken at her home and the beautiful landscape surrounding it.  I would love to visit her home as it has been turned into a museum depicting her art and the way she lived!!!!!
