Olga Bezhina

Russian artist Olga Bezhina was born in the city of Krasnodar in south Russia, where she continues to work to this day. She works with landscape painting, building up layer upon layer of oil paint to create intriguing textures in her pieces, which she refers to as ‘volumetric constructions’. Her use of colour is also distinctive, with bright hues and shades that contrast against each other and create a strong impact. The result is a unique study of nature, in which colour and visible brushstrokes work together to create a dynamic vision of the world.
