William B. Hannum (1947 - 1998) was active/lived in California. William Hannum is known for Landscape, still life, figure, animal painting. He was one of the most popular artists in recent times in the California Art Association. His paintings commonly depicted rolling California hillsides, coastal scenes, trees and still-life subjects. Bold and broad brush strokes executed with thick, intense color characterized his expressionist style. Hannum created works of art that intentionally conveyed a feeling of robust vitality; through them, he expressed his emotional response to nature or an image. His work was highly sought after throughout his fourteen-year association with the CAA until his death from cancer in 1998 at age 51.
