Valerie Moore is our artist of the month with her beautiful oil paintings. Her exhibit will remain in the library until April 4 for your enjoyment.
Moore hails from Kerrville and is a Real Estate Broker by day. She paints for relaxation and finds pleasure in recording the scenery of the places in which she has lived or visited. The scenes she has captured include New Mexico, Colorado, and our own Texas Hill Country.
Moore began painting in 1980 and is self-taught. She learned from the well-known Bob Ross on public television and has taken a few classes over the years.
She exhibited in Colorado years ago, while she lived there, and she exhibited once before, under her maiden name Tarkenton, in our library. A year and a half ago she married Lester Moore and he cheerfully supports and assists her.
Moore’s works are available for purchase. She can be reached at 830-343-4040 or provenmarket@gmail.com. She is pleased to work with clients to provide custom paintings.
