ERIN HANSON has been painting in oils since she was 8 years old. As a young artist, she worked at a mural studio creating 40-foot-tall paintings on canvas, while selling art commissions on the side. After getting a degree in Bioengineering from UC Berkeley, Erin became a rock climber at Red Rock Canyon, Nevada. Inspired by the colorful scenery she was climbing, she decided to paint one painting every week for the rest of her life. She has stuck to that decision ever since, becoming one of the most prolific artists in history. Erin Hanson's style is known as "Open Impressionism" and is now taught in art schools worldwide. With thousands of collectors eagerly anticipating her work and millions of followers online, Hanson has become an iconic, driving force in the rebirth of contemporary impressionism.

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.
