Each episode of Portrait of an Artist offers an in-depth exploration into the life and work of an important visual artist. Through the careful consideration of the works themselves, to the influences that played upon their creator's lives, each program in the series attempts to offer a portrait of the artist in context. This episode examines the life and work of Georgia O'Keeffe. Particular attention is paid to how O'Keeffe managed to make her brand of abstraction so emphatically American.
