Readers will welcome what Lisle has found. The woman who emerges has extraordinary personal stature, artistic gifts, commitment to her vision. (Chicago Tribune)Recollections of more than one hundred of OKeeffes friends, relatives, colleagues, and neighborsincluding 16 pages of photographsas well as published and previously unpublished historical records and letters provide an excellent portrait of a nearly legendary figure (San Francisco Chronicle).Georgia OKeeffe, one of the most original painters America has ever produced, left behind a remarkable legacy when she died at the age of ninetyeight. Her vivid visual vocabularysensuous flowers, bleached bones against red sky and earthhad a stunning, profound, and lasting influence on American art in this century.OKeeffes personal mystique is as intriguing and enduring as her bold, brilliant canvases. Portrait of an Artist is an indepth account of her exceptional lifefrom her girlhood and early days as a controversial art teacher, to her discovery by the pioneering photographer of the New York avantgarde, Alfred Stieglitz, to her seclusion in the New Mexico desert where she lived until her death.Renowned for her fierce independence, iron determination, and unique artistic vision, Georgia OKeeffe is a twentiethcentury legend. Her dazzling career spans virtually the entire history of modern art in America.Armed with passion, steadfastness, and three years poring over research, former Newsweek reporter Laurie Lisle finally shines a light on one of the most significant and innovative twentieth century artists.
