Cowgirl UP! 2026

All the gals dressed in their western finery.

Here are all the lucky gals to have been chosen for this year's event.

Two galleries, the Main and the Mini. Here's the crowd Friday evening in the Mini gallery.

My three paintings in the Main Gallery.

A favorite of mine "Carved of Spirit and Stone"

Saturday morning, friend and collector Doug Holiman purchased one of my minis, Distant Drums. Doug is traditional Blackfoot Lakota Sioux. He likes the ceremony of "sealing the deal" with a smoke on his peace pipe. Here, he displays and honors the items to assemble the pipe.

Doug tamps wild tobacco into the pipestone bowl of the pipe.

Sunday morning started with artists breakfast followed by a 90 minute quick draw. Here all the participating artists are lined up along the front of the museum ready to start!

Carson Thomas, our wonderful auctioneer. Love the tie!

The tent was crowded with bidders and onlookers. Each of us carried our paintings through the crowd as the bidding continued.

Debbie Shepard, the new owner of my auction/quick draw painting, Trail of the Ancients.

Jeff and Jill Dixon took home Traveling Through Time.
The show continues through May 31.
