Artist Biography
Karmel Timmons moved to Clearfield, Utah when she was 12 years old after living in many places all over the world due to her father's naval career. She entered drawings in competitions throughout her teens but she did not become a professional artist until she moved to Elbert, Colorado, an extremely "horsy" area in the Black Forest region 30 miles north-east of Colorado Springs.

Daily interaction with horses, including four of her own, led Karmel to again pick up her pencil and this time she found the subjects that she felt were worthy of the hundreds of hours that her works require.

Karmel has won the People's Choice award at the Coors Western Art Show in Denver, Colo., in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008. She has exhibited her work and won awards at the Phippen Museum Art Show (Prescott, Arizona), American Academy of Equine Artists Fall Showcase (Museum of the Horse, Lexington, Kentucky), Draft Horse Classic Art Show (Grass Valley, California), and the Western States Horse Expo Equine Art Show (Sacramento, California). Karmel's work has been published in Western Horseman and Equine Vision magazines.
