If you know somethin' well, you can always paint it but people would be better off buyin' chickens.Grandma Moses
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.
Grandma Moses
I don't advise any one to take it up as a business proposition, unless they really have talent, and are crippled so as to deprive them of physical labor.
Grandma Moses
Now that I am ninety-five years old, looking back over the years, I have seen many changes taking place, so many inventions have been made. Things now go faster. In olden times things were not so rushed. I think people were more content, more satisfied with life than they are today. You dont hear nearly as much laughter and shouting as you did in my day, and what was fun for us wouldnt be fun now.... In this age I dont think people are as happy, they are worried. Theyre too anxious to get ahead of their neighbors, they are striving and striving to get something better. I do think in a way that they have too much now. We did with much less.
Grandma Moses
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.
