Black and white photograph of Georgia O’Keeffe sitting in a lounging chair outdoors. Behind O’Keeffe is a covered patio. O’Keeffe is penning a letter on her lap and looks at the camera smiling.
A painting of two white shells covers the entire canvas. In the background is dark grey seaweed.
Intertwined ram's horns fill the paper. The central horn weaves through the circular horn on the right and then curves back towards the left.
Watercolor Cherry Blossoms with blue/green leaves on sky blue background. The flowers are positioned slightly left and branches out to the right top on paper in a landscape orientation.
Three conical green trees rise up from the base of the work and extend into the central and left portions of the piece. In the center of the image, a rounded tree with a yellowish center emerges above the green trees. Behind the central red tree and to the right, a narrower, rounded red tree can also be seen. The sky, visible in the upper corners of the work, are dark blue.
Horizontal graphite drawing on paper of landscape. Mesa top fills to the edges of the top of the page.
Photograph from behind of an adult holding a child’s hand as they walk through the Museum galleries. In the background, other visitors and white gallery walls with paintings are visible.
Black and white photograph of an adobe wall with a wooden ladder leaning against it and casting a sharp shadow on the wall. Snow covers the wall, the ladder, and the ground below. A dark path of dirt has been dusted through the snow.
Photograph of a table on which is placed prints and illustrations of a flat-topped mountain.
Silkscreen print of a desert horizon with a large cloud rising in the sky above. The entire piece is composed in shades of bright orange and fluorescent golden red. 'Tewa Nangeh/Tewa Country' is at the top and the O'Keeffe Museum logo is at the bottom along with 'Opening November 7.'
Small painting of red triangle of a barn above a sea of yellow wheat, in a blue sky filled with white clouds.
Two people wearing dark jackets, one in profile, stand in front of a painting of soft clay hills of grey, black, and pink. Through the center a large stripe of black makes a V shape though the grey. Blended areas of pink on the grey are on either side of this V in the bottom half of the canvas.
Vertical canvas with center stylized grey tree - limbs and trunk spreading out and upwards into reddish, grey and some greenish blended color of arching planes.
Photograph of a wall with a title "Making a Life" on a brown semi-circle with stitch-like designs. The wall opens up onto a room where a large painting of Mount Fuji in pink and white hangs under a row of skylights.
A tree with silver limbs extends across the entire vertical canvas. The painting is filled with soft golden pigment and yellow paint evoking autumnal foliage.
Small pieces of paper painted with various shades of yellow and red paint. O’Keeffe has written notes on the upper portion of the color cards.
A blue curved stroke, in the shape of a "?" with two blue circles beneath the curved stroke. Inside the curve are two blue circles. On top of the curve, are six blue dots. The immediate circle beneath the curve has four blue dots to its left and the subsequent circle has five blue dots to its right.
Two large swirling white flowers, one atop the other. The interior of the bottom flower is visible, yet the top flower is tilted upward hiding it's center. The two flowers fill the majority of the canvas, with a sliver of blue - perhaps an ocean horizon line along the top.
Black and white photograph of Georgia O'Keeffe in a swimsuit and light shoes holding a towel and a brush. She is standing on a hill with a sky behind.
Graphite sketch of an abstract/half completed face. On the side of the face closest to the right side of the paper one eye and a line delineating the mouth contrast with the other side of the face which is blank. The curvature of the jaw is the focus of the drawing, it is the boldest and strongest line in the work.
Portrait of Georgia O'Keeffe standing in the New Mexican landscape; profile view of O'Keeffe wearing a black head scarf, a black wrap dress over a white dress with desert grasses in foreground and mountains, sky, and clouds in background: arm is folded across waist while she looks forward with a small smile.
O'Keeffe describes this painting as " just the arms of two red hills reaching out to the sky holding it." This painting can be viewed as an organic abstraction contemplating the intersection of an expansive flat of blue sky and the V shape of the sandy red hills below.
A group of four people stand in a line on the edge of an overlook. The group includes three women in skirts or dress and hats and one man wearing dark trousers and a hat. Behind them is a vast desert landscape and large open sky.
A large cottonwood grows from the lower left corner of the scene. Its trunk diverges into three thick branches as it rises above the ground. Soft patches of paint along the branches define the foliage. Similar cottonwoods grow in the distance. An irrigation ditch runs diagonally across the lower right corner of the scene, as well.
The composition is a foreshortened vertical abstraction of a corner of an adobe fireplace with a white vase and feather sitting on the mantel adjacent to a yellow ochre vertical stripe. A single white feather has been placed in a white vase as the focal point of the work.
Large canvas of aerial view of the sky from above the cloud level. To the point of the horizon at 2/3 of the canvas the sky is vibrant blue dotted with islands of white clouds like icebergs in the sea. The top 1/3 is the pale horizon fading from salmon peach to grey-blue to the edge of the canvas.
