A Louisville, Kentucky transplant will show his art to the world in the heart of downtown Racine. “Bob Ross Nudes,” which opens on March 6 displays the modern oils of KM Scott Moore. Drawn to the flexibility of oils, Moore experiments with the textural qualities of his raw materials to create representational and abstract human forms.
Despite being inspired by the 16th Century High Renaissance and early Mannerist painters, Moore foregoes artistic mimicry in an effort to “do something that no one else has thought of,” something that he dreams he will “do… before (he) dies.”
Moore stated, “This is a rather daunting task, as we have roughly 30,000 years of art history…I am constantly asking myself, ‘What has been done already, and how is what (I am) doing different than that?’”

Describing his works as “artifacts of a thought process,” Moore wants people “to read the pieces not in the sense of a narrative, but as a creative process.”
The “Bob Ross Nudes” runs from March 6 through March 30. The opening reception is Friday, March 7 from 6-9 p.m.
