TEXT III The term ‘primitive art’ has been used in a variety of ways to describe works and styles of art. One way that this
term has been used is to describe the early period within the development of a certain style of art. Another way is to describe artists who have received little professional training and who demonstrate a non-traditional naivete in their
work. A wonderful example of this second type of primitive artist is Grandma Moses, who spent all her life living on a farm and working at tasks normally associated with farm life. She did not begin painting until she reached the
age of seventy-six, when she switched to painting from embroidery because the arthritis in her hands made embroidery to difficult. Totally without formal education art, she began creating panoramic images of everyday life
on the farm that have achieved international fame. 8. SPMB 2005
