“I look back on my life like a good day's work, it was done and I am satisfied wi…” — Grandma Moses

Painting's not important. The important thing is keeping busy.

I paint from the top down. From the sky, then the mountains, then the hills, then the houses, then the cattle, and then the people.

A primitive artist is an amateur whose work sells.

I look out the window sometimes to seek the color of the shadows and the different greens in the trees, but when I get ready to paint I just close my eyes and imagine a scene.
