"I decided to start anew," Georgia O'Keeffe wrote to a friend in 1915, "to strip away what I had been taught ― to accept as true my own thinking." O'Keeffe's statement reflects her transition from the naturalistic mode of representation she had been taught to abstraction in her painting. The development of this new style is evident in Abstraction Blue, completed twelve years later. The painting is dominated by undulating swirls and curves of blue tones emanating from the lower half of the canvas, bisected by a lighter crevice of paint that cuts the canvas vertically.
