Brushstrokes of Imagination: Exploring the Artistry of Gaylen Hansen

In anticipation of his 102nd birthday this September, Gaylen Hansen shares his recollections of growing up during the era dominated by horses, his art being profoundly influenced by dreams.

Showcasing paintings created between 2022 and 2023, the ongoing exhibition of the artist's work at the Linda Hodges Gallery in Seattle highlights a careful curation by Hodges and gallery director Dale Cotton. They meticulously selected pieces from many paintings housed in Hansen's studio, complementing them with a selection of his earlier works. Hansen's fruitful 38-year association with the gallery culminates in this show, which serves as a poignant finale as Hodges prepares for retirement and the gallery's closure.

Marguerite Montserrat

I am an artist, designer, and builder, using my hands, head, and heart equally. Although I spent many years studying in Boston, I now live in the same small town where I grew up. My decades of experience in the fashion and graphic design industries have brought me back to my true passion - painting - where I cherish the rituals and the moments of intense concentration and creativity.

Through my work, I strive to capture the essence of nature and human emotions, blending realism with abstract elements to create truly unique and captivating pieces. I cherish the rituals and moments of intense concentration and creativity that come with painting and take pride in the quality and craftsmanship of my work.
