Artist's Biography
Deian Moore’s love of wildlife and nature shines through her art. She has been painting professionally for over 8 years, and portrays elements of her personal, outdoor experiences in nearly every painting. She grew up rural North Idaho , but moved to Oregon where she earned her degree in art and a minor in fisheries and wildlife from Oregon State University in 1993. She worked for the U.S. Forest Service, in fisheries, for almost 11 years while pursuing her painting career. This time spent in the field allowed Deian to expand her knowledge, and also left her yearning to paint more.
“Painting is my passion! I think half of my love for painting is getting out and experiencing wildlife and nature. It's my goal to make an impact in wildlife art so I may give something back to nature.”
