PainterKnown for:
large-scale flower and New Mexico landscape paintings
Education:
School of the Art Institute of Chicago; Art Students League, New York; Teachers College, Columbia University (under Arthur Wesley Dow)
Georgia O'Keeffe developed a large-scale, close-up manner of painting flowers, bones, and the New Mexico landscape that had no real predecessor in American art and has had no real successor. She moved permanently to New Mexico after Alfred Stieglitz's death in 1946 and spent her final four decades painting the landscape she had documented for twenty years before. She is widely considered the most significant American woman painter of the twentieth century.

Product description
Winsor & Newton has manufactured artists' oil colours in London since 1832, and its professional-grade line remains one of the most widely used in studio painting worldwide. The range covers more than 120 pigments, each ground in cold-pressed linseed or safflower oil to a standard of consistency that has changed little since the nineteenth century. Lucian Freud and Francis Bacon were among the many painters who worked from the Winsor & Newton range throughout their careers.
