Recap of The Red Rock Collection Release
The Erin Hanson Gallery presents the Red Rock Collection
Wednesday, August 29, 2018
The Erin Hanson Gallery presented Hanson’s newest collection of vibrant paintings on June 16th, 2018. Each piece in the Red Rock collection featured the bright, bold colors inspired by the National Parks and monuments of Utah, Arizona, Nevada and Colorado.
Every painting in The Red Rock Show features the thick, impasto strokes Erin Hanson is known for, paired with a brilliant color palette. As you peruse the collection (found here), you will see that each piece embodies an intricate landscape filled with detail and beauty, using very few brush strokes. This is a signature element in Hanson’s open impressionism.
Collectors, art enthusiasts, and locals gathered at The Erin Hanson Gallery on the night of The Red Rock Show, filling the space with discussion and laughter. A subtle, twangy tune seeped its way through the gathering as guests sipped local wine from 2Plank Vineyards. Every aspect of the show was designed to create a memorable experience for all attendees.
Erin Hanson herself met many of the visitors during the show, sharing the experiences behind her paintings, signing her latest art book, and participating in in-depth discussions.
Hanson tells us, “I love to meet anyone who enjoys art, to talk with them about how they see the world, and to share my vision of the natural beauty that surrounds us with others.”

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.
