Hanson Releases New Line of 24 Karat Paintings at Open House Event
Sunday, November 23, 2014
On November 21st, The Erin Hanson Gallery in Glendale, CA presented a never-before-seen collection of Erin Hanson oil paintings. These original oils were painted over canvas that the artist had applied with 24 karat gold leaf. Magnificently colored and and as texture-rich as one would expect from an Erin Hanson original, these paintings had an additional glow that caught the light in a subtle and intriguing manner.
The paintings' baroque gold frames stood out against the midnight blue walls, and a large collection of miniature gold-framed oil paintings complemented the larger pieces. Guests enjoyed the performance of singer songwriter Marina V, while sampling a variety of reserve wines from Paso Robles' Peachy Canyon winery and nibbling on a delectable variety of cheeses.

About Erin
ERIN HANSON is the creator of Open Impressionism, a new painting style taught in art schools worldwide. Hanson is one of the most prolific artists in history, with over 3,000 oil paintings sold to eager collectors. With millions of followers, Hanson has become an iconic, driving force in the rebirth of impressionism, inspiring thousands of other artists to pick up the brush and join her in the Open Impressionism movement.
Hanson began painting in oils at 8 years old. As a teenager, she apprenticed at a mural studio where she worked on 40-foot-long paintings while selling art commissions on the side. After being told it was too hard to make a living as an artist, she got her degree in Bioengineering from UC Berkeley. Afterward, Erin became a rock climber at Red Rock Canyon, Nevada. Inspired by the colorful scenery she climbed, she returned to her love of painting and began creating one new painting every week.
Twenty years later, Hanson now resides in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, surrounded by beautiful wine country. She gathers inspiration for her paintings from the natural landscape around her, photo safaris abroad, and backpacking through National Parks. She seeks the beautiful colors of the golden hour and captures these colors on her canvases. Her painting studio and art gallery is 18,000 square feet (the length of a football field), and is open to the public Tuesday through Saturday.
