Terri Kelly Moyers (b. 1953)
Whether painting a portrait or a landscape or a cowgirl riding a horse, Terri Kelly Moyer's subjects are things that are beautiful and that move her. “I want to share what I see with other people and help them have the same pleasure I have. Each artist interprets and edits things in a different way, infusing his or her work with a different quality or emotion.” Moyer's favorite subject is the American cowgirl. “I enjoy painting women,” she says. “I feel women had a major role to play in the West, and maybe that hasn’t been recognized as much as it could be.” Terri was inducted into the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame in 2015.
