SIGN OF COWBOYS CARRIE FELL
The signs are there… if you know what you’re looking for. The alpine air of Vail and the sight of cowboys riding in evoke more than just tradition — it becomes a living expression of the modern West, strikingly reminiscent of the vibrant world captured by artist Carrie Fell. This collection, “Sign of Cowboys,” curated especially for the Gib Singleton Gallery, brings forth the spirit of the frontier, not merely remembered but reimagined — where motion, myth, and modernity converge. Art steps beyond the canvas and into the landscape itself, transforming timeless Western icons into a vivid, contemporary celebration of culture and identity.

For over 25 years, Carrie Fell has captivated collectors, galleries, and enthusiasts with her highly contemporary depictions of the West. Whereas many artists may not gain recognition during their lifetime, Carrie Fell’s originals are permanently displayed in renowned museums across the country, solidifying her status as one of the foremost contemporary artists of her era. Every piece by Carrie Fell is unique yet unmistakably part of an ongoing narrative.
Carrie drew inspiration from her experiences as a Colorado native and Western influences for her iconic portrayals of cowboys, riders, and bar scenes. As her hometown of Denver has evolved, so have her subjects and the mediums through which she expresses these changes. Whether through the quintessential materials of the Old West, sophisticated abstracts of DESIGNLINE, the nostalgic mood of
MODERN SOCIAL, or the dynamic NEON COWBOYS, Carrie’s work remains classically elegant yet highly contemporary. Her art does not attempt to portray a Western lifestyle, but rather an illusion that allows viewers to write their own stories in faceless images and abstract settings. Her art resonates deeply with audiences, drawing them back time and again with its emotion, movement, shapes, lines, colors, and textures, inviting viewers into a captivating story that unfolds on canvas. Few artists achieve such enduring appeal throughout their careers; Carrie Fell has always had this connection.
From her earliest accolades and inclusion in prominent galleries and museums, through the numerous commissioned works, and the publication of her book, The ART of CARRIE FELL, Carrie has continually evolved and sought new ways to connect with her audience, always delivering an experience that is authentic, accessible, and personal.
