"(In) Growing up on his family farm,...depicting agrarian people in a dignified way gave Moseman passion for his work."

 "The subject matter is quite fitting to Cather's works,...(and) will become some of the gems of our collection."
     -Ashley Olson, Executive Director, The Willa Cather Foundation
 
"Using simplified compositions with strong light and color, he captures the ephemeral nature of agrarians at one with the land."
     -Lloyd E. Herman, Curator & writer, Object Lessons, Guild Publishing

"Mark Moseman is legit because he grew up living and breathing agrarianism.  The subject is in his soul and it shows."

     -Kerry Hoffschneider, York News-Times
 
"...his work is reminiscent of 19th century French painting, like Millet and different paintings that idolize peasant workers."
     -Ronald R. Bernier, Director, Sioux City Art Museum
 "...the paintings of Mark L. Moseman are meditations on the need for nature and ordinary people."
     -Reece Summers, Curator, Great Plains Art Museum
 
"Mark has done an exceptional job of compiling an extensive collection of Agrarian Art at Bone Creek Museum (of Agrarian Art)"
   -Jon McGraw, President Buttonwood Financial Group, Buttonwood Art Space
"His ideas inspired a new direction and mission."
   -Anna Nolan, Founding President, Bone Creek Museum of Agrarian Art
 
"All the figures in Moseman's paintings are defenders of their beloved land.  (They) reflect the artist's own value structure."
     -Douglas M. Boughman, American Artist
