Quote Thursday -- More O'Keefe






All the earth colors of the painters' palette are out there in the many miles of bad lands.  The light Naples yellow through the ochres -- orange and red and purple earth -- even the soft earth greens.  You have no association with those hills -- our waste land -- I think our most beautiful country -- you may not have seen it, so you want me always to paint flowers.
Georgia O'Keefe, 1945
