Olga was born in St. Petersburg, Russia. Since her school years she felt the inspiration to do paintings. Olga has always liked impressionists and she often studied their works in the world famous Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg. These paintings always supported Olga’s inspiration to do artwork. She took some art classes in Russia but finally for professional career she has chosen a medicine practice and research. But from time to time she is coming back to her easel to make her life impressions visible for others through her paintings. Olga is using different techniques – acrylic, oil, pastel and watercolor. Although the artwork is not a major portion of Olga’s income; many of her paintings were sold for private collections in USA, Canada, England, Italy and Russia. Since Olga moved to the USA in 2002, she did a lot of travels through a southern United States from Atlantic to Pacific, visited Smoky Mountains and Alaska. Nowadays the beauty of North American nature being reflected more and more in Olga’s artwork. And the beauty of Texas is on a one of first places in this raw.
“I really love what I’m doing, and I am always
glad to share with you my vision of life through my paintings.”
