Big Bend Museum 2018

Erin Hanson: Impressions of Big Bend County was displayed at The Museum of the Big Bend in southern Texas, in late 2018. Hanson has long been inspired by the landscapes of Texas, and when approached by the museum to put on a show of Big Bend landscape, Hanson jumped in her van and drove across the country to explore the secluded and dramatic wilderness of Big Bend National Park. Big skies, big cliffs, big color -- that is what Hanson discovered and captured with her paintbrush for this iconic exhibition of natural landscapes.
