Many of Grandma Moses' paintings illustrate day-to-day farm activities, for example, "sugaring off" (preparing maple syrup), shearing and washing sheep, and making soap and butter. Her pictures present these activities as highly creative acts in themselves.
She was inspired to paint by taking art lessons at school. As a child, she started painting using lemon and grape juice to make colors for her "landscapes" [1] and used ground ocher, grass, flour paste, slacked lime, and sawdust. [4] At age 12, she left home and performed farm chores for a wealthy neighboring family.
Anna Mary Robertson Moses grew up on a farm in upstate New York, where she worked as a hired girl, helping neighbors and relatives with cleaning, cooking, and sewing. Her father encouraged her to draw on old newsprint, and she used berry and grape juices to brighten her images.
A lifelong farmwoman, Moses was renowned for her depictions of rural American life. She adopted a naïve, so-called "primitive" style that is evocative of both nineteenth-century "folk" painting and twentieth-century modernism.
Grandma Moses (Anna Mary Robertson Moses) 1860 to 1961. Born Anna Mary Robertson, the artist left home at a young age to work as a hired girl at a neighboring farm. Marrying in 1887, she eventually gave birth to 10 children (5 of whom survived past infancy).
