Talk/Demo: “Lessons from Georgia O’Keeffe’s Art and Life”
Saturday, April 14, 1:30 pm, FREE, no registration Expressive abstracts, sensuous flowers, expansive skies and red hills — these and other images flowed from Georgia O’Keeffe’s brush after she was inspired by a new approach to art. Once her work caught the attention of modern art impresario Alfred Stieglitz, the rest was history. Anna Koster served as Georgia O’Keeffe’s weekend companion and saw the famous artist’s life firsthand. Anna shares insights into O’Keeffe’s art and life and demonstrates techniques O’Keeffe used in her art. Anna worked for the famous artist in 1976, then went on to earn an MFA degree and enjoy a long museum career. Learn more about Anna and O’Keeffe at www.annakoster.com.
