Georgia O’Keeffe was born in Wisconsin in 1887. She longed to be an artist from an early age. When she was 18 she attended the Art Institute of Chicago and a year later went to study at the Art Students League of New York.

I can create deepness in a landscape picture by painting three rows of mountain shapes across the paper to show the background areas.

I can paint a picture of a tree by painting long brush strokes that get thinner as I slowly lift my brush from the tree trunk to the tips of the branches.

I can detail my drawing by adding the small leaves of the tree to my painting.

I can keep a clean paint set and desk area by rinsing my brush out before changing colors, not mixing colors in the set and not painting to the edge of the paper.
