This caused a major change in the way she felt about and approached art, as seen in the beginning stages of her watercolors from her studies at the University of Virginia and more dramatically in the charcoal drawings that she produced in 1915 that led to total abstraction. She studied art in the summers between 19 and was introduced to the principles and philosophies of Arthur Wesley Dow, who created works of art based upon personal style, design, and interpretation of subjects, rather than trying to copy or represent them. In 1908, unable to fund further education, she worked for two years as a commercial illustrator and then taught in Virginia, Texas, and South Carolina between 19. In 1905, O'Keeffe began art training at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and then the Art Students League of New York. O'Keeffe has been called the "Mother of American modernism". She was known for her paintings of enlarged flowers, New York skyscrapers, and New Mexico landscapes.
Georgia Totto O'Keeffe (Novem– March 6, 1986) was an American modernist artist.
