Patrick Hasson is a Joshua Tree-based contemporary artist whose painting style is a vibrant blend of abstract and representational elements, characterized by his distinctive 'dripping' technique rather than traditional brushwork. He employs rich, saturated colors to create energy and vitality, while exploring the interplay of light and shadow to add depth and mood. His dynamic compositions and intricate textures result from layers of dripped paint, creating a sense of motion and dimension that falls somewhere between Jackson Pollock's action painting and Van Gogh's impasto. Hasson spent the first twenty years of his career working as an independent filmmaker and came into painting later in life. Following his acclaimed desert rock debut series, 'Desert Dudes,' Hasson’s sophomore effort, the classic rock portrait rock series '1969,' opened to rave revues in Joshua Tree and Los Angeles. The series features the musical legends (Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, The Beatles, etc.) that made 1969 one of the greatest years in music history. Hasson's art has been featured on HGTV, USA TODAY, VICE, PALM SPRINGS LIFE, etc. and can be found in private collections in the US and Europe.
Patrick Hasson lives and creates art at his 'Rainbowland' Studio/Gallery in Joshua Tree, California. A former filmmaker from Los Angeles, Hasson moved to the hi-desert ten years ago to take a chance as an artist and stumbled into the world of airbnb, creating several rainbow-colored airbnbs, including the world-famous 'Rainbow House' which was recently featured on HGTV's Zillow Gone Wild show hosted by 30 Rock alum Jack McBrayer and on The Design Network’s Alt Home show. He was also recently awarded 2024’s Best Two-Dimensional Artist by Joshua Tree Voice Magazine.
“Patrick’s debut series ('Desert Dudes’) was pretty phenomenal, but what he’s done in his newest series (‘1969’) is really next level...his fusing of music, color and texture is really unlike anything out there." — Chris Goss, Musician/Producer, QOTSA, Kyuss, Masters of Reality
