As an Omaha native, Richard Olsen' s love affair with color began over 20 years ago and it has since beckoned him to the canvas as a lifelong relationship. Sitting in on a friend's art class, he casually picked up a paint brush to give it a try and was instantly hooked. Through an experimental creative process, he continues to find new ways to invoke emotion and his spiritual connection with God through a broad spectrum of color and texture.
