Not only was Karmel Timmons the Featured Artist at this year's Coors Western Art Show in Denver, Colo., she once again was the winner of the People's Choice award for her beautiful piece "The Legacy of the Vaquero." The piece "Handsome Hank" that was selected for this year's poster for the event has been added to the permanent collection at the National Western Stock Show.
Karmel's character is fairly modest, so we had to demand that she post this remarkable list of accolades for all to see. We think you would agree that the register is quite impressive, and clear testimony to the distinction and excellence of her work.
