"Green, Yellow and Orange" by Georgia O'Keeffe exemplifies her focus on close-up, abstract representations of flowers. While she created traditional watercolor paintings like her 1915 red canna bouquet, she is primarily known for her abstract oil paintings that explore the form and color of flowers. O'Keeffe emphasized that her goal was to reflect her personal perception rather than evoke surreal or erotic interpretations often misattributed to her work. Her paintings invite viewers to slow down and see flowers through her unique lens, emphasizing the natural beauty and vibrant color palette, aligning with the principles of abstract expressionism.
