※ Georgia Totto O'Keeffe (1887~1986, Georgia O'Keeffe - Wikipedia ) ; an American modernist painter and draftswoman whose career spanned seven decades and whose work remained largely independent of major art movements.
Called the "Mother of American modernism", O'Keeffe gained international recognition for her paintings of natural forms, particularly flowers and desert-inspired landscapes, which were often drawn from and related to places and environments in which she lived.
Her works are in the collections of several museums, and following her death, the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum was established in Santa Fe.

What did people truly want to say to the world?
I want to convey the true heart of the person published here.
With this mindset, I hope to properly express Georgia O'Keeffe's heart.
1. Fill a space in a beautiful way.
공간을 아름답게 채워라.
2. The days you work are the best days.
일하는 날이 최고의 날이다.
3. Imagination makes you see all sorts of things.
상상력은 모든 것을 보게 한다.
4. To create one's world in any of the arts takes courage.
어떤 예술에서든 자신의 세계를 창조하려면 용기가 필요하다.
5. Filling a space in a beautiful way - that is what art means to me.
아름다운 방법으로 공간을 채우는 것 - 그것이 바로 예술의 의미이다.
6. It's not enough to be nice in life.
You've got to have nerve.
인생에서 멋있는 것만으로는 충분하지 않다.
배짱이 있어야 한다.
7. Interest is the most important thing in life ; happiness is temporary, but interest is continuous.
인생에서 가장 중요한 것은 관심이다.
행복은 일시적이지만 관심은 지속적이다.
8. It is only by selection, by elimination, and by emphasis that we get at the real meaning of things.
사물의 진정한 의미를 이해하려면 선택, 제거, 강조를 통해서만 가능하다.
9. I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for.
말로 표현하기가 어려운 것을 나는 색깔과 모양(그림)으로 표현할 수 있다.
10. Most people in the city rush around so, they have no time to look at a flower.
I want them to see it whether they want to or not.
도시에 사는 대부분의 사람들은 바쁘게 사느라 꽃을 볼 시간이 거의 없다.
나는 그들이 원하든 원치 않든 꽃을 보게 하고 싶다.
11. I decided to start anew - to strip away what I had been taught, to accept as true my own thinking.
This was one of the best times of my life.
There was no one around to look at what I was doing, no one interested, no one to say anything about it one way or another.
I was alone and singularly free, working into my own, unknown-no one to satisfy but myself.
내가 배운 것을 벗겨내고 내 자신의 생각을 참된 것으로 받아들이기 위해서, 나는 새로 시작하기로 결심했다.
이 때가 내 인생에서 가장 좋았던 시기였다.
내가 무얼 하는지 볼 사람도 없었고 관심가진 사람도 없었으며, 이래라저래라 말할 사람도 없었다.
난 혼자였고 아주 자유로웠으며, 나 자신 외에는 누구도 나를 만족시킬 수 없는 존재로 일했다.
