The art of Primitive Americana comes naturally to Sandra Somers who was born and raised in a small midwestern town "full of large old houses, horse barns and lush farmland within roller skating range." Her primitive art, created using acrylics, depicts an active, bustling world with interesting architecture that time has somehow overlooked. Nationally recognized museums, historic townships and individual collectors have commissioned her work, including the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village. Somers is presently living and working in a 1860s farmhouse homestead with restored outbuildings, including a chicken coop used as a showroom studio.
