  • Notes Art Hansen was a painter and lithographer born on Vashon Island in South Puget Sound. His work drew inspiration from the ponds, forests, and farmland of Vashon Island. Hansen however varied in subject matter depicting self-portraits, female nudes, and vegetable gardens but above all he primarily depicted forests and flowers. In 1952, Hansen had a solo exhibition of his work at the Seattle Art Museum. He received a Fullbright Scholarship to study at the Munich Academy of Arts in 1953where he developed his own etching technique and met his wife, Gerda.
