Singing has always seemed to me the most perfect means of expression. It is so spontaneous. And after singing, I think the violin. Since I cannot sing, I paint.

I hate flowers -- I paint them because they're cheaper than models and they don't move.
Georgia O'Keeffe
When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it's your world for the moment. I want to give that world to someone else. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower. I want them to see it whether they want to or not.
Georgia O'Keeffe
Marks on paper are free -- free speech -- press -- pictures all go together I suppose.
Georgia O'Keeffe
It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.
