Violet, Nancy Andruk OlsonArtist: Nancy Andruk Olson Bio: Nancy Andruk Olson is a life long painter. She started painting as a child with her mother, who is an art teacher, and never really stopped. Raised in Los Angeles, she spent her childhood regularly attending museums with her family, most notably the Norton Simon Museum with its significant Impressionist and Post Impressionist collection.

are large fish found on reefs throughout the Pacific where they are prized for both food and game

These works serve as distilled moments of reflection

developed her passion for beautiful scenery while living in the scenic surroundings of southern California

and all those advocating for peace
