Tough call, I guess for me alone, but the more I look at Nicholson's (especially the earth-colored cubist ones), the more I like them. Whereas I'm finding myself liking O'Keeffe's a little less with each viewing.
OK, I think O'Keeffe is quite awesome, but there is something about much of Nicholson's work that I just love in a way that I can't quite explain or fathom. So he gets my vote.
