While a Lady Swings, Three Dogs Pass By, One Stepping on a Tulip

Gaylen Hansen is one of the most well known and colorful artists in the Northwest.  His exhibitions have been seen extensively from Los Angeles to Berlin, Germany.  He articulates his surroundings with humor and irony. Some of the things that please or affect me are…the Palouse moon rising full and orange, archaic dogs, unusual juxtapositions, fly-fishing on the North Fork, tulips, cowboys on horseback, enchantment, a decisive painting act, setting forth, clear mountain streams, and truth artfully stretched. –Artist statement
