Because she loved remembering the places she had lived in and wandted to show others the beautiful landscapes.

Arthritis kept her from doing her "worsteds" or yarn pictures so she took up the brush more regularly.

Grandma Moses started embroidering at age 67, right after her husband died. Then, when she was in her 70s, she admitted that it hurt her hands, so one of her sisters suggested painting.
