Barbara Olsen

Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay area, Barbara has always created art since she was a child for her own amusement and enjoyment.  In 1980, when her three children were grown, she began devoting full time to her artistic career.  A fully self-taught artist, Barbara has achieved an international reputation with a style that combines shimmering colors, a unique sense of design, and the artful skills of a storyteller.
