Texas artist Dan Hawkins has  been selling paintings and watercolors since his early teens. A few year's ago he began to explore sculpture and three dimensional works. "My current work is the most  exciting of my entire creative career," says Hawkins. His designs are based on the drawings of ancient and ceremonial masks.His distinctive touch combines several textures and materials creating a mixed media work of art.

Former professional modern dancer, Debora Wayne entered the world of visual arts in 1987 and turned her ceramics hobby into a full time business.
In 1995 her interest turned to glass jewelry. The glass pieces got larger and larger, and now her designs are jewelry for the home. With an eye for color and a love of chance, improvisation and risk, Debora still credits her roots in the world of ballet and dance as the main source of inspiration for her work. |
December trunk shows huge success!
In the month of December, Hanson Galleries did 12 artists' trunk shows that created lots of excitement. A trunk show offers you the opportunity to meet the artists and to see a much broader selection of their work than is usually shown in the galleries.
Work in the shows included experimental items, new spring designs, vintage showpieces and lots of one-of-a-kind artwork. Our customers are asking us to continue with these special occasions.
