Bright Horizon: Art Exhibition by Colt Idol
Colt Idol paints toward optimism. The light in his work is warm, the color is pushed as far as it will go, and the emotion connects with you before you can even name it. That feeling is what this collection is built around: an artist fifteen years in, at the height of his craft.
“Bright Horizon” brings new original work across a range of subjects and textures. Idol works in oil, with both brush and palette knife, building color and light from a foundation of his own deliberate art principles. Collectors span four continents, and auction records have been made three consecutive times. The work is what drives the demand, and the demand has never been higher.
Please come meet Colt at the opening reception on Friday, May 22, from 5-7 PM. “Bright Horizon” runs through June 4, 2026, at Cassens Fine Art in Hamilton, Montana.
