“Drawing XIII” features an intricate interplay of abstract forms, rendered in tones of black and grey charcoal. The left side of the artwork is characterized by a series of rounded and bulbous shapes that ascend diagonally, culminating in a sharp, zigzag pattern. On the right side, fluid, wavy lines contrast with the more geometric forms, creating an evocative sense of movement and dynamism. The background suggests a subdued gradient, adding depth and texture to the composition. This juxtaposition of organic and geometric elements highlights O’Keeffe’s exploration of abstract forms and her distinctive contribution to the Precisionism movement.
