Olga David

I was born in the Altai Mountains in Russia.
As a child, Egon Schiele was very impressed. My inspiration is man, his dynamism, liveliness and intimacy. I am a very positive person and this is reflected in the warm and friendly color scheme of my pictures. The diploma in panel painting and architecture studies has had an impact on my work today.

The focus of my artistic work is on people, the basic shape of the human body, emotions. Thanks to their many years of experience, I found my own style to combine the classic painting school with modern aesthetics. Lately my style has changed a lot, from the beginning it was a classic school, now I would call my style figurative expressionism. The main motive is the person with his emotions, in formal painting I love bright, open, juicy colors.

The focus is almost exclusively on people, mostly on female nudes. The mere combination of the different colors, their different light and dark tones, creates the depth effect of the image. The color red - symbol for love and passionate seduction - is always found in my nude pictures, sensual and explosive.

Olga David exhibited in southern Russia at the age of 15. Today her pictures are in the private possessions and institutions of Germany, France, Austria, Switzerland, the USA, Russia, Spain, Luxembourg, Belgium, England and Italy.
