After seven years of painting Los Angeles beautiful with her vibrant works, artist Erin Hanson has traded in her Frogtown digs for a 6,000-square-foot gallery in Mira Mesa. With 2,500 square feet of showroom space, The Erin Hanson Gallery is stocked with Hanson's original rural-, desert-, and coastal-inspired oil paintings, which have been likened to the works of the great Vincent van Gogh thanks to her focus on landscapes and textured brushwork.
Modeled after Hanson's favorite museums - Los Angeles' LACMA and Norton Simon - the space is awash with bold hues and minimalistic clean lines, and also includes a studio and shipping space from which she creates custom-commissioned pieces for her curated clientele.
By blending modern expressionism and classic impressionism, Hanson has coined the term "open impressionism," which frees her to create art that's utterly one of a kind. As for what we're pining after, the La Jolla-inspired "Cove at Dawn" and the Palm Springs-inspired "Sunset Light" both have us California dreaming. Score your own conversation piece for a cool $2,000 to $65,000 on canvases as grand as 13 feet wide.

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.
