Graeme Hagan is the younger son of famous Australian artist Robert Hagan. Graeme started painting in the Southport School, Queensland, Australia. His early talent for painting was recognized when he was awarded a scholarship for art in his final year of school in 2005. That year, and the 2 years previously, he had entered a number of small figurative oil paintings in the well recognized Annual Art Exhibition at Trinity College, Southport. All found keen buyers.
Graeme is following in his father’s footsteps, Robert Hagan, who has a strong international career based on a broad impressionist style. Graeme’s early talent has been recognizes by two high profile Colorado based galleries who have offered support and guidance.
To learn and progress Graeme is hoping to spend time with other experienced artists around the world over the next few years as well as study at the Chicago Institute of Art and with the renowned and powerful impressionist school in St. Petersburg, Russia.
When he is not painting, Graeme enjoys music and rugby.
