P-town Cottage

Hans grew up on Cape Cod and below are colorful, stylized portraits of some of his favorite Cape landmarks, from Chatham to Provincetown. There is an emphasis in these images on architecture and light, much like Edward Hopper, who did much of his work on the Cape. His style and technique give these unique paintings a youthful energy, using heavy amounts of paint at times to build a texture and occasionally decoupaging hidden elements into the work.

Hans has been painting since his grandmother signed him up for weekly paint lessons at the age of six. He began showing his work and had a part time design job in High School. He graduated in 1999 from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn with a BFA in Graphic Design at which time he returned to the Cape and began painting murals. Hans has traveled the country for both commercial and residential projects, including murals for 2 episodes of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" that aired in spring of 2008 on ABC. Hans also teaches weekly classes for kids, hosts "Ladies Paint Parties" and works with students on community mural projects.

Hans is currently working on a series of paintings, a stylized and bold portrait of his beloved Formula 1 Auto Racing, paintings that convey the speed, glamour, history, cutting edge technology, opulence, and passion of the sport. He has envisions a piece where a red Ferrari cuts through the streets of Monaco…or 2008 champion driver Lewis Hamilton’s chrome McLaren reflecting the bright lights from the night race in Singapore. Formula One is the most capital intensive and globally popular sport in the world and will blend two of Hans’ greatest loves – racing and painting.
