 She painted it in New York, after arriving there from Texas.
 In a letter to a friend, O'Keeffe wrote: "the whole thing—lit up—first in one place—then in another with flashes of lightning—sometimes just sheet lightning—and sometimes sheet lightning with a sharp bright zigzag flashing across—I … sat on the fence for a long time—just looking at the lightning."
Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio
The Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio is a historic house museum at 12 Palvadera Drive in Abiquiú, New Mexico.

My Shanty, Lake George is a 1922 painting by Georgia O'Keeffe.
 From 1918 to 1934, Georgia O'Keeffe spent part of the year at Alfred Stieglitz's family estate in Lake George.
 The depicted shanty was O'Keeffe's studio, which was painted in subdued tones in response to criticism from Stieglitz' circle—Arthur Dove, John Marin, Charles Demuth, Marsden Hartley, and Paul Strand.
 O'Keeffe said of the painting: "The clean, clear colors were in my head, but one day as I looked at the brown burned wood of the Shanty I thought, "I can paint one of those dismal-colored paintings like the men.
 I think just for fun I will try—all low-toned and dreary with the tree beside the door."
 "My Shanty" was the first painting by O'Keeffe purchased by the Duncan Phillips. Barbara Buhler Lynes

Early works of Georgia O'Keeffe
Early works of Georgia O'Keeffe are works made before Georgia O'Keeffe was introduced to the principles of Arthur Wesley Dow in 1912, which were reflected in her watercolor paintings, O’Keeffe at the University of Virginia, 1912-1914. Maria Chabot
Maria Chabot (1913–2001), was an advocate for Native American arts, a rancher, and a friend of Georgia O'Keeffe.
 She was the general contractor for her house in Abiquiú, New Mexico and took the photograph of O'Keeffe entitled "Women Who Rode Away," in which the artist was on the back of a motorcycle.
 Their correspondence was published in the book "Maria Chabot—Georgia O'Keeffe: Correspondence 1941-1949". Charcoal drawings by Georgia O'Keeffe from 1915
Charcoal drawings by Georgia O'Keeffe from 1915 represents Georgia O'Keeffe's first major exploration of abstract art and attainment of a freedom to explore her artistic talents based upon what she felt and envisioned.
 O'Keeffe developed radical charcoal drawings, with just a few lines, that led to greater development of total abstraction.
 This series of works was completed following three summers of instruction at the University of Virginia on Arthur Wesley Dow's design philosophies, which were highly influential in her development as an abstract artist.
 Early the following year, photographer and art dealer, Alfred Stieglitz exhibited some of the drawings at his "291" art gallery. A Storm
A Storm, a 1922 pastel painting by Georgia O'Keeffe, shows lightning over a lake and the reflection of the moon.
 The medium is pastel on paper, mounted on illustration board.
 The painting is part of a collection of work depicting sea- and landscapes of Maine or Lake George, and were created by O'Keeffe between 1921 and 1922.
 The technique and style of "A Storm" reflects O'Keeffe's earlier preference for charcoal as a medium.
 It was donated to the Metropolitan Museum of Art by a private collector in 1981. O’Keeffe at the University of Virginia, 1912-1914
O’Keeffe at the University of Virginia, 1912-1914 is an exhibition of watercolors that Georgia O'Keeffe created over three summers in the early 20th century at the University of Virginia.
