Georgia O'Keefe Inspired Magnified Flowers

As a class the students listened to a picture book on Georgia O'Keefe. They learned that she was born in Wisconsin and lived until she was 98. She lived the later part of her life in the Southwest and the majority of her subject matter was flowers that she magnified. The children chose a flower and we used view finders to enlarge the drawing on their paper with colored pencils and later they filled it in with water color.
