James Moore is an artist from Cardiff. He studied a Fine Art degree at Manchester School of Art and a Masters in Fine Art at Chelsea College of Art in London. Primarily working as a painter, he also curates exhibitions, makes animations and zine publications.

In recent years James' work has been exhibited at many venues including Paper Galley in Manchester, Elysium Gallery in Swansea, The National Eisteddfod of Wales, g39 in Cardiff, The Mall Galleries in London, Saatchi Gallery in London and at KARST in Plymouth.

James Moore's paintings are fundamentally inspired by landscapes. Dramatic skies, open spaces and distant horizons are painted in a subtle way that plays with beauty of the genre. James' works repeatedly pick up on cues from artificial environments, such as the landscape from a video game, a film backdrop or a theme park, and these starting points are used to launch into a meticulously constructed painting.

Other works represent places that James has ridden through during long distance cycling trips. They seek out an emotional, memory laden connection to landscape and often focus on 'man-made' incursions into these places. Layers of paint and smooth applications of colour create sensual painted objects that sometimes veer towards photorealism or computer rendering, and at other times expose the qualities of the material and processes.
