There was a sorrowful piece of news coming on 9th October 2020 that Olga had passed away after a severe and rapid disease. That is a huge strike to all who knew her.

 

Olga was an extraordinary person: incredibly cheerful, bright, kind, always inspiring with her joyful ardour, optimism, and active mood through her life. She made us admiring with her talent as an artist and a teacher. It was a great honor for us to work with her. It was very easy and comfortable to communicate with Olga – she created an atmosphere of trust, infinite positiveness and comfort for the soul. We will be lacking her kindness, enthusiasm, warmth and light which she shared with others.

 

We express our condolences to Olga’s relatives and loved ones.

 

Olga has created a large number of fascinating art works. A remembrance of her as a talented artist and an outstanding person will continue living in both her art works and hearts of her friends – in Australia, Kazakhstan, and other countries of the world.

 

Grieving.
