I started painting seriously in the early 1960's after spending several years as a Technical Publications Illustrator. My original medium of preference was oil and tempera. I switched over to watercolors and acrylic when my wife and I moved to Florida in 1996. I founded the Herons Glen Artist Group in 1997 and have been a member of that group ever since. I have also been a member of The Art League of Fort Myers, the Art Alliance and the Pine Island Art Association. I have won awards for my paintings in Michigan, in Florida statewide shows and in Southwest Florida. My paintings can be found in the Fort Myers City Hall, and in several area restaurants. I have displayed my work in the Art for Acts Gallery, the Lee County Courthouse, the Art Alliance gallery, the Gallery on Broadway, in the Robert Rauschenberg gallery at Edison College and I am in many private collections in Alaska, Michigan, Oregon, Texas, Ohio and throughout Southwest Florida. I hope that you enjoy my work. Visit Gary Olson’s Website @ http://www.artistgaryolson.com/ To purchase my art please contact me via email at, grpaolson@gmail.com or telephone, 239-731-6524
