Georgia O'Keeffe, York Beach, Maine, September 25, 1923
"The days are so fine - it would be rather difficult to pack up and go away from them - and though I know my work is very bad I seem to want to do some more that will probably be equally bad - I seem to have a very good time with it even if it's bad stuff and so far I have very little to show for it - It will come in time - Something must come from it."

This painting is included in the display and for sale in the exhibition Bruce McMillan's Coastal York with Georgia's Words at the York Hospital, York, ME, May 1, 2025 to August 31, 2025 featuring original watercolors of Bruce McMillan and excerpts from Georgia O'Keeffe's letters written from Long Sands Beach, York, ME in the 1920s when she visited alone to sketch and paint.
