Jamie Hansen: Watercolor Art
Why did I get on Redbubble and Zazzle if I’m already on Shopify and Etsy?
Stepping back to let someone else handle the manufacturing, shipping, and delivery: my plan is to shift a lot of the products to places like Redbubble and Zazzle so my international customers can have a better experience with my art.
The CASE Act passes the house! Here's more about the CASE act.
The CASE act aims to make it easier and more affordable for artists and copyright holders to assert authorship rights if their work is infringed. They could go to small-claims court or a regional court to file a dispute. I still hope that it's a long time before I have to go to battle for my rights as a creator, but I'm grateful that there are other organizations campaigning to make the process easier for creatives like me.
I'm showing at Brews on Main in Downtown Anderson.
"Everything looks great, and we have gotten a ton of complements," Notes Carrie, the manager of the Downtown Anderson Brews on Main. The craft beer shop and bar reached out to me last month to invite me to hang my art on their walls. We have discussed the possibility of leaving the art on display through Spring 2020.
Project recap: "God at the Center" created for Central Presbyterian Church
I was excited this Sunday to reveal the artwork that I created to support our church's worship theme, God at the Center. The theme will tie in with most of our biblical studies for the year. I'm excited to focus on this year's theme: I can already feel it guiding my choices as I carve my past as an artist and small business owner. I hope that my art will provide a visual anchor point as the congregation considers this year's theme.
I'm Now Showing at Loblolly Arts in Seneca
I'm so excited to bring my work to Seneca to show at Loblolly Arts. Visit the gallery on Ram Cat Alley to find unframed prints, mounted prints, and a few original artworks by me. See original musical pieces, a variety of mounted prints, and cards and small prints of my work at Loblolly Arts.
Interview with Evelyn Beck about my show, and Two Octaves
Two Octaves is one of the most recent pieces completed by Hansen, a member of the Anderson Artists Guild. It features a 1925 Cunningham grand piano gifted to her family by her husband’s aunt and transported to their North Carolina apartment in 2001 with financial assistance from Hansen’s grandmother. The couple brought it with them when they moved to Anderson.
Concert Review: my collaboration with Sounds of Carolina Music Academy
If you've been by the Anderson Arts Center, you might have heard beautiful music drifting up from the bottom level of the old brick building. Sounds of Carolina Music Academy has been at the Anderson Arts Center for 4 years now and they are located across from the Bay3 Gallery where I show my work. I was excited to attend one of the studio's first concerts with my family.
Instrumental: an exhibit by Jamie Hansen to benefit the Anderson YMCA
I will showcase a selection of my latest work at the Anderson Area YMCA from June through August. For every piece that is purchased, I am donating thirty percent of the sales back to the YMCA's annual campaign. The YMCA uses those funds toward scholarships for individuals and families to enroll in programs such as swim lessons, youth sports, summer camps and general memberships.
