I recently visited the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe. This is one of the few museums
in the United States devoted to the work of a single artist. Both the artworks and the
museum are wonderful.
O'Keeffe's catalogue raisonné contains 8 especially intriguing paintings from 1976-1977
that depict a subtle varying gray field (appearing as a rectangle in perspective) against
a lucious blue sky background. These paintings reminded me of some photographs
of my landscape work Escaping Flatland 1-10 against the sky.
Below, photographs by Andrei Severny of my stainless steel artworks, the series Escaping Flatland.
Immediately below, color graduations in an O'Keeffe painting, followed
by studies of color graduations in photographs of Escapiang Flatland:

These are beautiful images. As I viewed them I was reminded of a photo I took of the O'Keeffe museum and my favorite satellite some years ago (pardon the low resolution). Thanks.

Wonderful picture.

This sky surprised me for how perfectly two-dimensional it looked. Flying Toronto-Edmonton, 2013 (sorry for the bad resolution, phone camera).
