Georgia O'Keeffe has always been my most favorite artist. I even remember choosing her as the subject of a biography assignment in 4th grade! Her work stops me in my tracks, and that is exactly what our goal was for these amazing larger than life renderings of bugs and insects. Artist were challenged to make our community stop and notice how beautiful small bugs and insects really are by drawing BIG and using vibrant color to attract the eye just like Georgia O'Keeffe's flower paintings. I am happy to announce that as I was hanging this work in our Gallery, many many people stopped with awe and wonder to enjoy the work. Great job, 1st and 2nd grade artists!!!!! You did it!!!
