Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986) was an influential American artist known for her modern paintings of natural forms, particularly flowers, animal skulls, and New Mexico landscapes. Born in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, O'Keeffe grew up on a farm and developed an early interest in art. She received formal training at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Art Students League in New York, where she learned traditional painting techniques. However, her artistic direction changed significantly after studying with Arthur Wesley Dow, who encouraged her to focus on personal expression through the harmonious arrangement of line and colour.
O'Keeffe's breakthrough came when she sent a series of abstract charcoal drawings to a friend in New York, who showed them to the photographer and gallery owner Alfred Stieglitz. Stieglitz exhibited her work in 1916, beginning a lifelong professional and personal relationship. O'Keeffe moved to New York in 1918, where she became integral to Stieglitz's circle of modernist artists and married him in 1924.
During the 1920s, O'Keeffe gained acclaim for her large-scale paintings of flowers, which she magnified to highlight their intricate forms and colours, making them almost abstract. Her works, such as "Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1" and "Black Iris", are iconic examples of this style. O'Keeffe's fascination with the American landscape is also evident in her depictions of New York skyscrapers and the vast desert scenes of New Mexico, where she spent significant time from 1929 onward and eventually made her permanent home in 1949.
In New Mexico, O'Keeffe found endless inspiration in the rugged terrain, bleached animal bones, and clear desert light. Her paintings from this period, including "Cow's Skull: Red, White, and Blue" and "Pelvis Series," reflect her deep connection to the landscape. Even in her later years, when her eyesight began to fail, O'Keeffe continued to create art with the help of assistants, focusing on themes she had explored throughout her career.
O'Keeffe's legacy as a pioneer of American modernism endures, with her work continuing to inspire and captivate audiences worldwide. Her innovative approach and unique vision have secured her place as one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.

A lovely art print bought as a memory of our holidays on the beautiful Isles of Scilly.
The frame is very well made and displays the art print beautifully. Ordering from John Dyer Gallery was simple and delivery swift. I would not hesitate to order from them again.
Thank you so much for the amazing customer service, and most beautiful painting of our favourite place
Absolutely beautiful painting. So thrilled with it. Completely amazing service: beautifully packaged, framed and safely delivered really quickly.
Lovely picture, bought 3 after our recent trip to Cornwall. Already thinking of getting more.
Have walked this coastal path from St Agnes to Chapel Porth and back countless time. I am now pleased that this fabulous print is the first thing I see every morning. Beautiful, happy colours. Nice frame. I’m now planning of ordering one of Mount’s Bay by same artist.
Such a vibrant, pretty piece. I visited Fowey Harbour recently and was looking for a small keepsake to have with me back in the U.S. Shipping abroad was seamless and I received this item quite quickly. I've had many compliments since putting this on my phone and am happy to be reminded of a wonderful trip to a magical place this summer.
As always professional , efficient and prompt .
We have been coming here for 27 years together. This is our place especially during lockdown. John has captured our place beautifully. I have many of John’s prints, always in my birthday, so this one for June is 😍 perfect. They always make me smile, colourful, fun and look perfect in our home
I found the whole experience flowed from start to finish. The customer service was exceptional, they couldn’t do enough for me. This is the kind of first rate service I would expect from such a professional artist. Thank you.
Lovely,bright and colourful ready to hang.
Bought back lovely memories.
Posted promptly too.
Thank you.
I have loved John Dyers work for many years. I have some prints at home and at work.
Gorgeous, vibrant colours. Reminds me of many happy evenings at the Minack when growing up in Cornwall. Special memories.
great service. Thank you.
I purchased “Bathing Belles” to add to 2 other John Dyer original paintings collected over the years .
We decorated our house and removed another trio of prints , so were hoping to find something suitable at John’s latest exhibition.
We were not disappointed . The colours are vivid and the painting has elements of my childhood : a trip on the Enterprise boat , snd swimming in the sea . There is also a signature seagull (oh how I love those seagulls !!) a chough , a puffin and a friendly seal . I like the play on the words in the title, with bluebells in the foreground .
The off white frames complement the colour palette perfectly .
I was extremely impressed on how quickly the painting was delivered after the exhibition - I had expected to wait at least a couple of weeks , but within days it was with me . As always it was packaged very carefully .
Stripy Swimmers is a joyous riot of exquisite colours and shapes. It has pride of place in my sitting room. Every day it lifts my spirits and energizes me to be creative myself. Thank you Joanne, your unique painting has a very happy home. Thanks also to you John for your expert eye - the frame perfectly enhances the explosion of colour. It was so robustly packaged I wouldn't hesitate to buy from the gallery again knowing that it will arrive safely. I am a very Happy Customer!
We have loved and been visiting Holywell bay for over 25 years. It's a real home from home for us. This picture captures the place for us perfectly.
The paper is such good quality, certainly worth the cost. Delivery was effortless.
