seminary school by producing natural history drawings for one of her instructors.
During her artistic career of nearly 60 years, her oeuvre included two different bodies
or work; she is well-known for her early naively-rendered portraits. Waters would
eventually become a successful still-life and animal painter, displaying a level of
proficiency rarely achieved by folk painters. Her highly accomplished still-life paintings
