Anna Mary Robertson Moses (September 7, 1860 – December 13, 1961), known by her nickname Grandma Moses, was a renowned American folk artist. Having begun painting in earnest at the age of 78, she is often cited as an example of an individual successfully beginning a career in the arts at an advanced age.

Her works have been shown and sold in the United States and abroad and have been marketed on greeting cards and other merchandise. Moses’ paintings are among the collections of many museums. The Sugaring Offwas sold for US$1.2 million in 2006.

The New York Times said of her: “The simple realism, nostalgic atmosphere and luminous color with which Grandma Moses portrayed simple farm life and rural countryside won her a wide following.

“사람들은 늘 내게
늦었다고 말했어요.”
하지만 사실 지금이야말로
가장 고마워해야 할 시간이에요.
진정으로 무언가를 추구하는 사람에겐
바로 지금이 인생에서 가장 젊은 때입니다.
무언가를 시작하기에 딱 좋은 때이죠.”

“하고 싶은 일이 있으세요?
그럼 그냥 하시면 돼요.
​삶은 우리가 만들어나가는 것이에요.
​언제나 그랬고, 앞으로도 그럴 겁니다.”
