In the Footsteps of the Impressionists By: David Bates [an Excerpt] Given how early Hanson started painting and that she’s been at it for a couple of decades, I asked her what she’s learned about painting. “I’ve learned it’s very hard to correct a mistake once it goes up,” she said. “It’s easier to do it right the first time.” Mistakes inevitably do happen, and therein lies another lesson. “Each painting doesn’t need to be a masterpiece,” she said. “I can learn from each painting and then do it better again the next time, instead of sinking all my time into being a frustrated artist and trying to ‘fix’ my paintings like when I was first starting. The thing that turned me into a professional was actually finishing my paintings.” Monet began his artistic work as a teenager, and by his death at age 86 in 1926, he’d made more than 2,500 paintings. Hanson estimates she’s finished around 3,000 paintings, including the $100,000 one she was working on when I visited her. It sold last month. Open Impressionism continues the work of impressionists and post-impressionists like Monet and van Gogh. The purpose of each painting is to capture the fleeting and momentary light seen out of doors, especially during early dawn and sunset. Erin Hanson has been painting in oils since she was eight years old. As a teenager, she apprenticed at a mural study where she painted 40-foot-tall works on canvas while selling art commissions on the side.
