Through Georgia's Eyes

“Georgia expresses feelings in her own way.  Words work.  But for her, the color blue says it better.  Or red.  Or a seashell.” – Through Georgia’s Eyes

Georgia O'Keeffe saw the world differently from most people. This book explores her life through her time in art school, learning to express herself through her medium and her love of vast space that inspired her and led her to the desert.  Lyrical and vivid, Through Georgia’s Eyes is a portrait of an exceptional artist, a woman whose eyes were open to the wideness and wonder of the world.

Winner of the award Best Children's Book of the Year – 2007 Bank Street, this book was written by Rachel Rodríguez and illustrated by Seattle artist Julie Paschkis.   

Julie Paschkis has been painting and illustrating in Seattle full time since 1991. Best known for her work as a painter, she also writes and illustrates books, designs fabric and makes quilts.
