i'm sure there's about a million pages on google!. it baffles me why people don't try that first!. anyway, yeah, flowers, also skies, southwestern and midwestern landscapes, also skulls!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

O'keeffe (1887-1986) studied living plants!. She painted a flower called the Red Canna, when she did this she tried to capture the essence, by doing this she created a new abstract beauty, conveying it's very life force!.
I don't have a link for you but you can always go to the museums online and view her works!.
