Chaparral Fine Art - Featured Artists

Robert Moore

Mr. Moore is a nationally recognized painter from Idaho whose evocative landscapes, farm scenes and still lifes reflect a profound attachment to his boyhood home. As a young man, his talent earned him a full scholarship to the prestigious Art Center School of Design in Pasadena. There, studying under the important impressionist Dan McCaw, Mr. Moore wrought his own style through a new understanding of the limitless possibilities of impressionism.
The artist paints primarily on location, working to preserve the color relationships of the natural world while seeking depth and sophistication in his compositions. And though his paintings most often depict the landscape of the Rocky Mountain West, Mr. Moore says, "I'm not as interested in specific subjects as I am in trying to decipher the natural order of he landscape, the essential beauty of the world around me."

Mr. Moore is a well-respected painter with a stellar national reputation; his work has been recently featured in Southwest Art and Big Sky Journal and he has enjoyed six highly successful one-man shows with Chaparral.
