About the Author

The colorful and light-filled paintings of Robert Moore clearly communicate his deep respect and appreciation for nature. A reflective, soft-spoken individual, Robert discovered art early on as a way of expressing himself. A one-time aspiring lawyer, he earned a Bachelor of Science degree and teaching credentials from Eastern Oregon State College. His increasing desire to pursue fine art brought him a full scholarship to the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, where he majored in illustration and graduated with honors.

Such masters as Joaquin Sorrolla and Isaac Levitan have influenced Robert's approach to color harmonies and light. Much of his initial study included color theory classes that transformed his color blindness into a positive and distinctive element in his work and teaching.

Living along the Snake River in Idaho with his wife and five children, Robert is surrounded by the same scenic beauty that first captivated him as a child. Using vivid colors and high-key values, he prefers to work on location to best capture the immediate impression of each subject. Robert teaches workshops twice a year out of his studio/gallery in Declo, Idaho.
