Pink Shell with Seaweed 1937

Georgia O'Keeffe's "Pink Shell with Seaweed" (1937) is a striking example of her signature style of close-up, magnified views of natural forms. The painting depicts a large pink seashell with a spiraling inner form, set against a background of green seaweed and blue water. O'Keeffe's use of smooth, curved shapes and vibrant colors creates a sense of both beauty and mystery. Her simplified forms and bold colors emphasize the inherent abstract qualities of the natural world.
