Artistic Statement -
"Being a visual artist is the pure excitement of using a brush to express movement by deliberately applying paint to the surface. To live and feel each moment as an interpretation of color from life to the canvas."
Olga Gernovski was born in the Ukraine, where her art education began. She trained intensively in painting and drawing for several years. In 1994 Olga and her family moved to Boston, where she completed her formal education at the Art Institute of Boston.

" I hope that when people are looking at my paintings they feel the acuteness of red blossom, the transparency of glass, the rushing forces of nature, and the thrill of human emotions. At those moments... lines flow like music and every artwork is a confession."
