About "Fountains of My Youth": Fountains have long inspired thoughts of eternal youth and well-being. They have become a legendary site for registering those secret wishes of our hearts. Of course, we know that the fountain's powers are born of myth and fancy, and yet we are left to explain why it seems quite impossible, while splashing our bare feet in a fountain pool, to maintain an air of dignity or adult sophistication, or to keep atbay the wave of childish giddiness that floods over us. So, here at this fountain, within this villa garden, wecan take our shoes off, cool our feet, cast our coins and make our every wish come true.
About the Artist: The art of Greg Olsen illuminates the soul and spirit of its subjects and uplifts the hearts and minds of its viewers. Olsen's diverse interests are deftly demonstrated in oil paintings that range from the realistic and historical to the whimsical. His luminous, delicate portraits capture not only his subjects' likenesses, but their spirit as well.
