M：Grandma Moses is among the most well-known 20th-century painters of the United States，yet she had hardly started painting before she was in her late seventies.She was born on a farm in New York，one of five boys and five girls.At 12，she left home and worked as a housekeeper until she married Thomas Moses at 27.They farmed most of their lives，first in Virginia and then in New York.Grandma Moses began to paint using oils in her old age because she wanted to keep busy and pass the time.Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a market，and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought everything she painted.Three of those pictures were exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art，and in 1940，she had her first exhibition in New York.Between the 1930s and her death，she produced some 1，600 pictures.
