Profiles in Creative Aging: Georgia O’Keeffe Art for Personal Reflection

Georgia O’Keeffe was not swayed by fame, even as she carefully cultivated her image. Instead
she lived life on her terms, seizing opportunities, driven by passion. O’Keeffe was also a master
of reinventing herself – as a teacher, provocateur in the avant-garde, and into elderhood as a
lyrical voice of place, space, and time.

Through the sweep of the artist’s life and with close looking her masterworks, we will see that
the radical shifts she made personally are reflected in her paintings. Now you have the chance
to look at your own life through the lens of change, with O’Keeffe’s best loved paintings as your
inspiration.
