Speaking of Grandma Moses...Wikipedia says the following about this American Treasure:
Anna Mary Robertson Moses (September 7, 1860 – December 13, 1961), better known as "Grandma Moses", was a renowned American folk artist. She is often cited as an example of an individual successfully beginning a career in the arts at an advanced age. Moses had ten children but five died at birth. Although her family and friends called her either "Mother Moses" or "Grandma Moses," she first exhibited as "Mrs. Moses," yet the press eagerly dubbed her "Grandma Moses," which stuck." [1] LIFE magazine celebrated her 100th birthday by featuring her on its September 19, 1960 cover.
Awesome view of A.C. You really did make it look like the Grandma Moses picture. How cool is that. Hey did you notice the Given Name of Grandma Moses - (Anna Mary) That's even cooler ha? Great effects on the picture though. It makes atlantic city look cozy. However, we know it's not cozy. The contrast of Rich and Poor is way out of scale there.
