A painter of cowboy genre scenes and landscapes, John Moore opened a studio near Yellowstone National Park and painted there for the next 50 years, doing landscape scenes of Wyoming, and Montana as well as Colorado. He was basically self-taught but was encouraged by Frederic Remington.
Born near Fort Worth, Texas, he was early exposed to western life because his father started the Abilene Trail. He worked as a cowboy and sketched by the fire at night. He became a Texas Ranger (showing 500 of 1663 characters). |
