Ole Nordhavn is a self-taught artist who has always been interested in art in various media: watercolors, acrylics, oils, and in the majority of his adult life, photography. He began with oil painting and in late 2015 he took up watercolor painting after attending several watercolor classes as an activity on several cruises. Not happy with the results, but determined not to let it beat him, he took up painting in earnest, buying supplies, books, videos, and for the last five years taking an art and painting classes.
For three years from professional artist, Richard Gunn, at the Hayward Senior Center.
