About The Book

Every childhood has its own blueprint of memories. Some memories are stored, some vanish, and some are kept alive through words, music, or paintings.

Olga’s childhood has inspired her to record her memories through paintings. Her canvases are filled with scenes of Siberia’s snowy landscapes, village life nestled by birch trees, forests, lakes, and above all, her admiration for divine beauty and the infinite wisdom of Mother Nature.

By 1977, she and her ten-year-old daughter, Tatyana, had become refugees leaving Russia for the USA. In New York, Olga was employed as a systems analyst. At the age of 54, she was diagnosed with cancer. While a patient at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), she attended a watercolor workshop where she held a paint brush for the first time.

Since then, painting has become her passion, which has helped restore her body and spirit. Olga’s childhood has inspired her to record her memories through paintings.
