Capturing The Moment -- Yellow Cactus Flower
Capturing The Moment — Yellow Cactus Flower
“Yellow Cactus Flower” — Image by kenne
Flowers are not meant
to last forever,
so we cherish
the moments.
Most cactus flowers
last only a day
leaving behind
beautiful memories
for those fortunate
to gaze upon them
in the early
morning sun
while others
share the moment
painting
what they see.
Georgia O’Keeffe, Yellow Cactus Flower, 1929

Grief Crows
The last of the wildflowershas faded, the air is pregnant
with the first breath of falling leaves, and long grass is meshed
with violet splashes, commonknapweed on common ground.
A glance overhead reveals something flapping, a black glove
or a hand, waving, first oneand then another, keeping close,
mime artists skittering – crows …

O’Keeffe signifies power over loss resulting from aging or from gender expectations and barriers and she was passionately committed to painting, an activity all women could engage in,…

In 1933 Frida Kahlo is 26yo and Georgia O’Keeffe is 46yo. This letter was apparently written after Kahlo found out about O’Keeffe’s nervous breakdown
Georgia, Was wonderful to hear your voice again. Every day since I called you and many times before months ago I wanted to write you a letter. I wrote you many, but every one seemed more stupid and empty and I torn them up. I can’t write in English…

Flowers For Georgia #Flowers #Haiku #GraphicArts #TwoForTuesday
Artwork by Phil Gennuso Arts
Scattered starlightflowers from SpringGeorgia’s spirit lives on

A simple tribute to Georgia O’Keeffe, one of my favorite American artists of the 20th century! Flowers, of course were one of her favorite subjects to paint, so I thought this work would be appropriate.
