He attended the [[Académie de Saint-Luc]] and the [[Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture]]. He also studied with [[Charles-André van Loo]]. When Van Loo's nephew, [[Louis-Michel van Loo]], was appointed a [[court painter]] to King [[Philip V of Spain]], Ollivier accompanied him to Madrid.

He was certified as a genre painter at the Académie de Saint-Luc in 1764 and, two years later, became an "agré" (a type of candidate member) at the Académie royale. In 1772, he visited England, where he exhibited at the newly established [[Royal Academy]] in London.<ref name="J" />
Many of his works were created for [[Louis François, Prince of Conti]], for whom he was the "peintre ordinaire" (painter-in-waiting).
His works may be seen at the [[Musée des beaux-arts de Bordeaux]], the [[Louvre]] and the [[Musée des beaux-arts de Valenciennes]], among others. The locations of many of his works are currently unknown.
