Georgia O'Keeffe, Mother of American Landscape Painting..fell in love with New Mexico's famous flat topped mountain..Cerro Pedernal. it is said that she claimed that if she painted it enough..God would give it to her when she died. It's one of the reasons we bought land where we did. The sunsets over it..so most of these sunset pics include Cerro Pedernal:
