Landscape painting called ‘Red Hills, Lake George’ by Georgia O’Keeffe (1927) has intense red sandhills in its foreground and a brilliant white-hot sun at its core radiating like hoop upward into an expanse of lilac-gray sky. She painted this while visiting Lake George, NY, but its “brilliant color, dramatic luminosity, and simplified forms” are drawn from the Red Hills of Texas. The painting is part of the Phillips Collection, a museum in Washington, DC. (September 2018)
“You paint from your subject, not what you see.” - Georgia O’Keeffe
