What New Mexico ranch did Georgia O'Keeffe call her 'faraway' place?

Georgia O'Keeffe called Ghost Ranch her “faraway” place.

Ghost Ranch is a dramatic property near Abiquiú in northern New Mexico, surrounded by colorful cliffs and high desert scenery. O'Keeffe first visited the area in the 1930s and later maintained a home there, finding its isolation and geological forms especially stimulating.

The ranch became one of the most important landscapes in her art. She painted its cliffs, hills, bones, trees, and skies in simplified compositions that emphasized shape and color rather than ordinary topographical description.

Ghost Ranch and Abiquiú are related but not interchangeable answers. Ghost Ranch is the named ranch and landscape area; Abiquiú is the nearby village where O'Keeffe also owned a famous house. Her phrase “faraway place” refers specifically to Ghost Ranch.
