More than a quarter of artist Georgia O’Keeffe’s paintings, such as “Oriental Poppies, 1928,” focused on flowers. Following her own artistic vision by rejecting accepted artistic styles, O’Keeffe (1887 – 1986) painted enormous flowers, underscoring their importance in a way that commanded attention. Removing her subjects from any familiar context, O’Keeffe’s exaggerated, colorful flowers became intense abstracts.

Also known as silk screening, serigraphy is a process by which multiple layers of ink are manually pressed through fine screens, resulting in an art print that resembles a painting on paper.
