John Moore

John Marcellus Moore (1865 - 1948) was active/lived in California, Texas, Wyoming.  John Moore is known for Cowboy genre and landscape painting.

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 and Indian Scout with General Crook in the campaigns against Geronimo's Apaches.  He did a painting of the Grand Canyon for the Santa Fe Railroad. In 1935, he returned to Texas, opening a studio in Wichita Falls, and that year he was designated Official Cowboy Artist of the Lone Star State.
