Olga remains in tune with the times because she herself is following the wave and does not yet know where it will take her. Certainly always a little further on unexplored shores, by itself anyway. In constant search of a new way of expression, Olga is constantly reinventing her line, testing new techniques, new formats, new artistic approaches.

She came into this creative world by following a friend from Annecy to the Lycée Diderot in Lyon, which offered a textile art section. She went to school, then to a textile workshop on rue Royale in Lyon. She quickly left to specialize in textile engraving, which turned out to be too technical, even though she wanted to draw.


Olga then continued to follow the movement: a very good friend, known in a workshop, introduced her to the founder of Julie Lavarière, who liked his line, his style, his romantic universe, a touch old-fashioned that gave him this charming delicacy. Fine lines that hide a strength that is often unsuspected but always present.

Olga started to draw textiles. She liked it and worked well: she set up her own business and started her own business, still in the furniture textile industry. "This section of textile design is much more creative."

In constant creative research

As an illustrator, she is constantly looking for her style, her way of expression by working with tools and techniques: gouache painting, acrylic painting, pencil drawing, zinc engraving.
Everything is a work of materials, reliefs, textures, combined with colors, or the absence of colors.

A very vegetal, animal universe, always extremely detailed, bordering on laborious as the precision is fine and meticulous. The result is dense, rich, dreamlike universes, in which the gaze is lost in softness, clinging to a detail, a colour, a relief to better re-enter the sensations.
Anatomically precise features combined with colours and plays of light, all orchestrated in a world of poetry.
