Olga Iakovleva

All my life, I have searched for myself in different professions and areas of life, but throughout my journey, visual art has always been with me. After all, you can't run away from yourself. Every time, I turn to creativity for inner support and balance. I believe that art is love, where you are both the lover and the beloved at the same time.
I was born in Russia and currently live in Thailand.
My works are in private collections in the United Kingdom, the United States, Thailand, and Russia.
