Tex lived a very interesting life as a true cowboy of over 40 years, a Texas Ranger and an artist that was declared by the Texas Legislature under HCR No. 48 to be the Official Cowboy Artist of Texas back in April of 1935. He was self-taught, but always admired the art of Thomas Moran, and Moran’s influence can be seen in his work. In a January 1971 article in Golden West Magazine titled. The Taming of Tex Moore. It talks about Tex meeting Charles Russell, and that it was Charles Russell who convinced him he needed to give up cattle drives and become an artist. Tex even used a longhorn monogram similar to Russell’s on his art. I just acquired several pieces of Tex Moore’s work, all art that was in his home in Wichita Falls at the time of his death. Most of the pieces have been stored under a bed for, in some cases, over 100 years. As he traveled throughout the west on cattle drives and as a scout, Tex painted everything from beautiful mountain scenes to river scenes, then breathtaking ocean scenes and then some of the most spectacular desert scenes imaginable.
