A crowd of Western-art lovers gathered on August 14 to open this year’s America’s Horse in Art Show & Sale. Sixty-four pieces of art are included in the America’s Horse in Art Show & Sale. It was opening night and every star of the show was in place, as the guests filed in, glass of wine in hand.
GoHorseShow.com’s Director of Sales and multi-talented artist, musician, and horseman, Don Bell, has already sold one piece of artwork, and has one more for sale, “Luxury Auto,” which is being offered for $7,000.
The guests inspected each painting, drawing and sculpture to appreciate their respective nuances and messages, and the artists’ styles. The guests also mingled with the artists and learned what inspires them and the techniques they employ.
“These are acclaimed artists, some of whom have had their art in the Prix de West and other prestigious shows,” says Ross Middleton, director of the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame. “This show is an amazing chance to own some of this art, some of which is created by members of the Cowboy Artists of America.”

Soon, the guests’ mental notes on their favorite pieces became more of a wish list, which then translated into bids.
At the end of the evening, several guests left the event the proud owners of one or two the pieces. And even though they can’t physically take those pieces home until November, the guests went home to make room on a wall or table on which they will display their purchases.
America’s Horse in Art Show & Sale opening night was Saturday, August 14. The art officially went on sale at 8 a.m. CDT on Monday, August 16. If you are interested in purchasing art, please contact Nichole Dalrymple at (806) 378-5021. You can view each piece of art in a slideshow posted on America’s Horse Daily.com.
