This tree has been standing here in Ghost Ranch for many years. It was featured in one of Georgia O'Keeffe's painting many years ago. It has this artistic composition and attracted me to paint it. While in Ghost Ranch I took tours to visit the landscape where Georgia O'Keeffe painted and also visited her home in Abique. I was impressed with her vision of art and environment as a lady artist living in early 20th century. On the way home we also visited her museum in Santa Fe to see the special exhibit of her paintings done in Lake George of NY before her time in New Mexico. It was a fabulous exhibit. I am so glad I got to see the original paintings of this amazing and unique artist.
