Myrtice Snead West (1923-2010) is among the category of artists who are best described as self-taught. West came from an economically underprivileged background and thus had little chance for formal education in the arts. Her work, and that of artists like her, is generally called by confusing and often misused terms such as "folk," "primitive," "visionary," and "outsider" art. Myrtice West is among the best known of these artists.Create Date
