She wanted to depict a side of America that the people back in Manhattan didn\u2019t know of. <\/p>\n<p>Considered a new breed of American painters, Georgia O\u2019Keeffe paintings portrayed the power and emotions of objects set in nature.

After spending a summer at Ghost Ranch, New Mexico, she began a life-long love affair with the area. Enthralled by the barren landscape and unrestrained skies she explored these subjects in her art.
