Digital print on matte fine art photo paper. Measures 8"x10" including a white border. Comes signed on the back and inside a clear plastic sleeve with rigid backing board and info slip.

For lovers of New Hampshire and New England winters, this evokes that feeling of the peaceful storm. To create the original painting, I traced the cover of a New Hampshire atlas and transferred the shape to watercolor paper. Then, I applied 1/4" masking tape around the entire thing, did my painting in gouache, and peeled the tape away at the end.
"Jackie Hanson (b. 1999, Belmont, NH) spent her childhood in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire, raised in a family where art and creativity were always encouraged. While growing up, she became familiar with the beauty of the outdoors in New England: lakes, mountains, small farms, and plenty of day trips to the ocean.
Her New England upbringing is a major influence on her subject matter. Using a variety of media, she explores themes of nature as a force at play with humanity, both opposed and aligned with one another.
Jackie graduated from New England College’s Institute of Art and Design in 2022 with her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. She is currently working at her alma mater's Library while building her practice into a career."
Featured Work
