"Fake O'keeffe"

This painting looks exactly like one of O’Keeffe’s artworks. O’Keeffe had such a huge fascination with flowers, in the paintings of her flowers the flowers were filled with so much detail, and she liked capturing the essence of the flower. In this painting I believe it is filled with so much detail like O’Keeffe’s previous works. O’Keeffe when she made her paintings of flowers, she liked zooming into the flower. Maybe it was because she wanted people’s imagination to wander when people looked at her paintings, or maybe it was for the viewers to pick up on the little details of the artwork. This O’Keeffe picture embodies all of that. This work of art has a certain ambiance to it, it provides space to let your imagination see this painting a different way than someone else would. The style of the painting is similar to her previous paintings. Maybe I’m reading too into this painting but to me this is filled with so much calmness, and peacefulness. I really do love this work of art, maybe you’ll see why I love this painting so much, or maybe you won’t. Either way, as long as you admire this painting I feel like it has done its job.
