This snowy weather can make me feel dreary, so to combat the winter blahs let’s explore vibrant colors and warm landscapes. Our artist for the month of February is Georgia O’Keeffe. Her beautiful studies of flowers and other natural items will captivate your imagination, drawing you into noticing the tiniest details of God’s beautiful creation.
