Collection features wildlife, landscapes
DERBY - Connecticut’s Department of Energy and Environmental Protection has announced that artwork by Ray Olsen of Cornwall Bridge is on display at Kellogg Environmental Center, 500 Hawthorne Ave.
The free exhibition is open for viewing from 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday through August.
Olsen finds the natural world the most inspiring subject he could work from using oil, acrylic, and pastel painting, etching, and woodcut mediums. To his eye each tree and flower is an individual just as each persons’ face is unique.
Olsen graduated from Parsons School of Design in New York City with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. He also studied at the Art League and the School of Visual Arts.
He is an art director and designer as well as a fine artist. Olsen is also a professional photographer. His works have been shown in many galleries throughout the New York area and New England.
