Chris Morel at the 2026 Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale

January 7–9, 2026 • Denver, Colorado

I am honored to be showing new work at the Coors Western Art Exhibit & Sale, one of the West’s most respected annual art events. Held each January during the National Western Stock Show, Coors brings together an exceptional mix of

contemporary and traditional Western art. For me, it’s a meaningful opportunity to share the landscapes that have shaped my life and my painting practice—those big skies, quiet mesas, and shifting mountain light that define northern New Mexico and the surrounding region.

At Coors, my goal is what it has always been: to invite viewers not only to see the landscape, but to feel it. The atmosphere, the light, the character of the land—these are the elements I aim to translate in paint. Exhibiting at Coors allows me to bring this lifelong work to a national audience of collectors, fellow artists, and friends of the West. If you visit the show, I hope you’ll stop by—I’d love to connect, share the stories behind the paintings, and welcome you into the landscape with me.
