About

George Olson has been working as an artist for over 50 years.  This exhibition will focus on his earlier works which use found objects as inspiration.  Using a range of mediums including woodcut relief, ink wash, charcoal and assemblage Olson moves beyond the objects he is referencing to create bold graphic abstractions that simulate the intriguing surface textures of his source material.
