The Erin Hanson Gallery Hosts Alex Scott Art Show and Book Signing
Alex Scott "Nobody Walks in LA" Book Signing Party
Saturday, December 12, 2015
Having recently expanded to a 5k square foot warehouse of gallery and studio space, The Erin Hanson Gallery is honored to support select artists in showcasing their works for limited engagements. The dark blue walls of the gallery and gleaming glazed floors housed the photographic works of Los Angeles native Alex Scott for the book signing of the Kickstarter-funded smash hit Nobody Walks in LA on December 12th.
"Nobody Walks In LA is a photographic essay showing my unique perspective of the city I grew up in. I climbed on freeways in the middle of the night for the last 2 years to capture these haunting photos that tell of an almost mythical version of LA that most certainly does not exist – one without cars. This is not some sorcery or movie magic as commonly seen here in Hollywood, I wandered the city, night after night, for hours searching for just the right spot at just the right moment to snap my shutter and freeze a rare, quiet and naked Los Angeles." - Artist, Alex Scott
The evening was hosted by actor Danny Masterson with jazz riffs provided by The Chris RolontzTrio.

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.
