Ann Hanson has been painting the West – as she sees it – for more than 30 years. From cowboys and cowgirls to Native Americans, she has a deep love for the Western way of life. She attended two years at a community college as an art major where she focused on graphics and technical illustration. Her painting skills are self-taught and are a never-ending research project.

Ann has been featured in art magazines, and she has participated in several western art shows in which she has often received awards for her work.

Ann tries to challenge herself with each new painting and to learn new techniques she can incorporate into her unique style.
