Biography

After many years when illustration, designs and cartoon were his hobby, Grenville Moore became a specialist decorator and muralist and completed assignments  and commissions in homes throughout the Cotswolds and London.  He also wrote and illustrated articles for two national publications.  Among his projects was a large painted vase for the Ralph Lauren store in Barcelona.  These decorative and interior design skills remain with him and are very much on show in his paintings of wild animals, many of which are embellished with backgrounds of rich tapestry motifs, Arcadian glades and medieval-style foliage.  A trip to Kenya first sparked his enchantment with wild animals and birds and inspired his current work which specialises in dramatic animal portraits, often large scale and close up.  Detail and accuracy are key.  He is passionate about telling the story of each creature accentuating the unusual and celebrating the wildness, dignity, and soul of each animal.
