Arnold Kramer
Minnesota's Grandpa Moses
(1882-1976)

Arnold Kramer was nicknamed Minnesota's Grandpa Moses by the University of Minnesota during the hey-day of his painting career in the 1960's. A self-taught artist, he completed over 300 pieces in a style referred to as naive. His work was reminiscent of paintings done by Anna Mary Robertson Moses (1860- 1961), another self-taught artist, from New England, whose work is still extremely popular among collectors. Like Grandma Moses, Arnold Kramer didn't pick up a paint brush until after retirement when he began recording the history of Midwestern agronomy in primary colors.
