Georgia O'Keeffe, known for her striking art, expresses frustration towards the perceptions of men in the city who oversimplified her work. She highlights how they imposed their sentimental views on her flowers, misinterpreting her intent and vision. This disconnect emphasizes her desire for viewers to engage with her artwork authentically, rather than projecting their biases onto it.

In her paintings, O'Keeffe sought to reveal her unique perspective, challenging the audience to see beyond their conventional associations. Joan Dididon's reflections in "The White Album" capture O'Keeffe's struggle against the limitations imposed by societal views, ultimately showcasing her fierce individuality as an artist.
