Her style was so unique that it never got a name. Here is a note from her biography.

Using nature as her inspiration, Georgia O"Keefe developed a highly visible, personal, and monumental style without parallel.

HOPE THIS HELPS

At the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe they run a film about her life, including interviews with her. She has said that she could not paint the traditional way of painting and sought to paint her own way and style. It fits with her personality that she did not succumb to society's idea of what was good art - and she created a style unique to her alone.

I'm not sure if it has a name...if I had to call it something, I'd call it Hyperreality. She draws realistically, and real objects, but way up close and almost 'more real than the real thing'. I also doubt it has a name because her style never really caught on as a movement...she had her own way of viewing and depicting things, and as soon as someone says 'Georgia O'Keefe' you know exactly what that kind of painting would be like (and no other artists come to mind).

She is an Art-deco painter, in with Charles Demuth and Tamara de Lempicka, or Ribera.

well if I had to lump her in a genre, my knee-jerk reaction says "abstraction"
