Nicholas challenges his brush with a broad range of subjects from closely observed scenes of mountain village life to expansive views of the high peaks. Having lived in Crested Butte, Colorado for over 15 years, surrounded by some of Colorado’s largest wilderness areas, Reti makes frequent excursions into the backcountry. His field sketches and studies made during backpacking and pack trips are translated into large finished canvases that transport the observer to those very wild places and give one a vivid sense of being there. His travels have taken him all around the planet including Antarctica, South East Asia, Africa, Canada, Europe and South America.
Most recently Reti has joined the board of the A.R. Mitchell Museum of Western art where he has initiated an internship program to inventory and curate the artwork at the Mitchell. He is also
currently working on editing and publishing a first hand account of the mining camp of Irwin in
1878-1886 as well as researching and collecting the art history of the Gunnison Country, Colorado. Nicholas attended the Minneapolis College of Art and Design on a full scholarship, graduating in 2001 with a BFA in Painting. He spent his junior year at Parsons, Paris and at the Liceo Artistico di Porta Romana in Florence. Immediately following graduation in 2001, he mounted a solo show in Venice, Italy during the Biennale. He has illustrated a children’s book entitled “Ann and Liv Cross Antarctica: A Dream Come True”, which tells the story of the first two women to ski across Antarctica.
His paintings have received numerous awards and recognition including being invited to the Coors Western Art Exhibit and Sale as a Young Gun in 2019. The painting “September Zenith” was selected for inclusion in the 2017 Oil Painters of America, Western Regionals exhibition. In 2015 T. Boone Pickens purchased “Into Paradise” for his collection at Mesa Vista Ranch.

Broadmoor Galleries in Colorado Springs is proud to present “Moore Art: A Family Affair,” an exhibition that showcases the unique artistic styles of American impressionist artist Robert Moore, and his two children, Anna, and Robbie Moore. Robert, who is colorblind and paints with both hands simultaneously, has established himself as a prominent figure in the art world, and his children have followed in his footsteps.
Robert Moore, a celebrated American painter who is colorblind and paints with both hands simultaneously, is known for his signature landscapes, cityscapes, and portraits. The exhibition will showcase a range of Moore’s works alongside those of his talented children.
“Moore Art: A Family Affair” is a unique opportunity to experience the work of three incredibly talented artists from the same family,” said Broadmoor Galleries director, Jamie Oberloh. “Robert Moore’s impressionistic style is a true representation of the beauty and diversity of America, and his children Anna and Robbie are following in his footsteps with their own unique styles and techniques.”
Robert Moore’s artistic achievements are all the more remarkable given that he is colorblind. Despite this, he has become known for his ability to create vivid and striking color palettes in his paintings. He has also developed a unique technique of painting with both hands simultaneously, which allows him to create intricate details and textures in his works.
Moore’s use of both hands to paint has been compared to the way a pianist uses both hands to play a complex piece of music. This technique requires a great deal of focus and coordination, and it has become one of Moore’s signature methods.
Moore’s colorblindness has also influenced his work in other ways. He has said that he is drawn to painting landscapes because he is able to see the world in shades of green, which he can differentiate more easily than other colors. This has led him to develop a deep appreciation for the beauty of nature and the environment.
Despite his colorblindness and unique painting technique, Robert Moore has become one of America’s most beloved impressionist painters. His works continue to inspire and captivate viewers, and his contributions to American art are truly remarkable.
Anna Moore, a professional artist in her own right, draws inspiration from her father’s work and her surroundings, using her skillful brushstrokes to capture the essence of nature in her landscapes. She works in a variety of media, including oil painting, watercolor, and printmaking. Her work is inspired by the natural beauty of the American West and the people and places that inhabit it.
Robbie Moore, who recently graduated with a Finance degree from the University of Arkansas, has always had a passion for art and the natural world. He has developed his skills in drawing, gouache, watercolor, and oil painting, and his work has been featured in a company calendar commissioned by his employer. With his father’s legacy of developing artists and a lineage of artists in his family, Robbie’s future aspiration is to make the most out of his upbringing and create a name for himself in the art world.
“We are thrilled to have the opportunity to showcase the work of three incredibly talented artists,” said Broadmoor Galleries’ director, Jamie Oberloh. “The combination of Robert’s impressionistic paintings with Anna and Robbie’s unique styles and mediums creates a truly exceptional exhibition that will delight and inspire our visitors. Their paintings are a true representation of the beauty and diversity of America, and we are honored to share the work with our community.”
The exhibition will be open to the public from May 18th, 2023, through June 8th, 2023, and will feature a special reception on May 18th, 2023, from 4-8 pm, where visitors can meet the artists and enjoy light refreshments. All works in the exhibition will be available for sale.
