Welcome to the official site of Jeanne Hansen, an award-winning artist based in Salt Lake City, Utah. Explore her work, bio, and more below.
A native of Salt Lake City, Utah, Jeanne studied art and design at the University of Utah and received her Bachelors of Fine Art degree.
Her post-graduate work was at the School of Visual Arts in New York City. This experience had a profound influence on her. Art and Design merged into one.
Jeanne is primarily a Modernist painter depending on the subject matter and what she wishes to create. “Art at its essence makes you think and feel. When I look at a subject I often find patterns of light, color and rhythm emerging. These elements evoke emotion for the subject.” She uses only archival materials to create her fine art.
Her work has been exhibited at the Arvada Center, Albuquerque Museum, Bountiful Art Center, Kimball Art Center, Springville Museum of Art, Eccles Community Art Center, St. George Museum of Art, and Woodbury Art Museum. Numerous art galleries in both Salt Lake City and Park City have exhibited her award winning art.
Jeanne’s distinctive work is included in many corporate, private, and public art collections, including the Utah State Capitol, Salt Lake International Airport and Zions Bank.
Jeanne Hansen is a Signature Member of both the Western Federation of Watercolor Societies and the Utah Watercolor Society. She is also a Member of Merit with the Intermountain Society of Artists. “Painting has taught me important lessons in life—to be flexible and to go with the flow.”
